You might need to indicate what the disorder is.

What is a carrier for hemophilia?

A carrier for hemophilia is a female who carries the genetic mutation for hemophilia on one of her X chromosomes, but does not exhibit symptoms of the condition herself. Carriers can pass on the gene mutation to their children, resulting in hemophilia in male offspring. Testing can confirm carrier status.


Is it true that a female with one copy of the allele will be a carrier and have the disorder?

It depends on the type of disorder being discussed. For X-linked recessive disorders, a female with one copy of the mutated allele (being heterozygous) will typically be a carrier but not exhibit symptoms of the disorder. However, for autosomal dominant disorders, having one copy of the allele is sufficient for the individual to express the disorder. Therefore, the specifics of the allele and disorder in question are crucial for an accurate answer.

What kind of gene pair is found in the female carrier of a sex linked disorder?

In the female carrier of a sex-linked disorder, there would typically be one normal allele and one mutated allele for the gene associated with the disorder on the X chromosome. This is because females have two X chromosomes, and one copy of the X chromosome with the mutated allele can be masked by the normal allele on the other X chromosome.


How many children would have hemophilia if the female was a carrier of hemophilia and male was normal?

Hemophilia is passed down from mother to son. It is extremely rare for a woman to have hemophilia. It is necessary, though, for a woman to be a carrier of the disorder for her son to acquire this disorder. Females have two X chromosomes whereas males only have one. When a boy is born, he takes one X chromosome from his mother and one Y chromosome from his father. Therefore, he can only get hemophilia through his mother. Example One: Mother(Carrier)+Father(Non-Affected)=50% chance of their son acquiring the disorder and 50% chance of their daughter being a carrier. Example Two: Mother(Non-Affected)+Father(Hemophiliac)=All sons will be non-affected and all daughters will be carriers.


If a female carrier for hemophilia mates with a healthy male who doesn't have hemophilia what are the expected genotypes and phenotypes of their children?

Haemophilia is a recessive, X-based disorder. The woman in your question is a carrier, meaning she has the defective gene, but isn't bothered by it. Therefor, the woman is of the type 'Xx'. The man is of the type 'XY', not carrying the defective gene. Their children can then be: XX, xX, XY, xY. This means that their daughters won't be affected by it, but might carry it, and their sons either not carry it at all, or carry it and be haemophilic.


Does hemophilia skip a generation?

Haemophilia is a sex-linked recessive disorder - which means it can skip a generation, but only if it is carried in the female line.A female can be a carrier of haemophilia, but a male cannot. This is because males only have one X chromosome, so if they have a defective X they will have the disorder. If a father has haemophilia, all of his daughters will also have haemophilia.
