Answer 1

Answer:

X linked inheritance is that which we get through the X chromosome and Y linked inheritance is that which we get through the Y chromosome.. if we talk abt a genetic disease like haemophilia or colour blindness, in both cases, chances are more for a male to get defected..

y linked inheritance is only for males and not for females.

Answer 2

Answer:

Genes that are carried by either sex chromosome are said to be sex linked. Men normally have an X and a Y combination of sex chromosomes, while women have two X's. Since only men inherit Y chromosomes, they are the only ones to inherit Y-linked traits.
