    X-Chromosomes.

    Explanation:

    Characters determined by a gene located on only the X-chromosome are said to be sex-linked. Such traits show a different pattern of inheritance in males and females. For example, a recessive allele on the X-chromosome

    • would be masked in a female if the corresponding allele on the other X-chromosome is dominant;

    • would always be expressed in a male because the Y-chromosome does not have a corresponding (active) allele.

    Thus, the female may posses a homozygous or heterozygous allelic pair for a sex-linked character, but a male will only have one allele for it.
