Summary

Description
English: The image shows one example of how the hemophilia gene is inherited. In this example, the father doesn't have hemophilia (that is, he has two normal chromosomes—X and Y). The mother is a carrier of hemophilia (that is, she has one faulty X chromosome and one normal X chromosome). Each daughter has a 50 percent chance of inheriting the faulty gene from her mother and being a carrier. Each son has a 50 percent chance of inheriting the faulty gene from his mother and having hemophilia.
