Answer:
2. X-linked recessive
Explanation:
Transmission of genes from carrier female (mother) to male progeny (son) is seen in X-linked recessive inheritance. X-linked because it occurs in the X-chromosome of the mother. The presence of a single recessive gene does not cause the disease, thus it is a recessive trait. Hence, the male progeny (son) will have a disease.

The correct option is (2) X-linked recessive.
In humans, the inheritance of X-linked recessive characteristics follows a distinct three-point pattern.
- The first is that while fathers give their kids Y chromosomes, they cannot pass on X-linked recessive traits to them.
- This means that males with an inherited X-linked recessive condition will inherit it from their mothers' X chromosome.
- Second, males are more likely than females to have X-linked recessive characteristics.
Concept of X-linked recessive
- Genetic problems related with mutations in genes on the X chromosome are referred to as X-linked recessive inheritance.
- Because he only has one X chromosome, a male having such a mutation will be affected.
- A girl with a gene mutation on one X chromosome but a normal gene on the other is usually unharmed.
