When paired with a normal X, the affected x allele is masked (Xx), suppressing the trait. Since females have only X alleles, the probability increases.
Females have an XY chromosome pair, so the trait is frequently expressed
Males without an affected x allele always express the trait (XY)
When paired with a normal X, the affected x allele is masked (Xx), suppressing the trait. Since females have only X alleles, the probability decreases.
