    A female has two X chromosomes. If the disease is an X-linked recessive disorder, and the female does not have the disease, but is a carrier of the disease, then it will contain only one X-linked recessive allele for the disorder.

    Let the allele for X-linked recessive disorder be : Xr

    Then the genetic combination will be

    XXr
