Read the given passage and answer the question given below.
The sex linked recessive disease, which shows its transmission from unaffected carrier female to some of the male progeny has been widely studied. In this disease, a single protein that is a part of the cascade of proteins involved in the clotting of blood is affected. Due to this in an affected individual a simple cut will result in non-stop bleeding. The heterozygous female (carrier) for the disease may transmit it to sons. The possibility of a female becoming a sufferer of disease is extremely rare because mother of such a female has to be at least carrier and the father should be sufferer. The family pedigree of Queen Victoria shows a number of suffering descendents as she was a carrier of the disease.
Man who is sufferer of the disease marries a woman who is a carrier of this disease. What percentage of children born as carrier of this disease?
- A 100
- B 50
- C 25
- D zero
Answer & Solution

Detailed explanation
Parents: Sufferer Man \( (X^hY) \times \) Carrier Woman \( (X^HX^h) \) Offspring genotypes: \( X^HX^h \) (Carrier Female) \( X^hX^h \) (Affected Female) \( X^HY \) (Normal Male) \( X^hY \) (Affected Male) Number of carrier children = 1 out of 4. Percentage =…
