What are the symptoms and inheritance pattern of a sex-linked disorder?

Sex-linked disorders are genetic conditions caused by mutations on the sex chromosomes. Symptoms of sex-linked disorders can vary widely, but often include physical abnormalities, intellectual disabilities, and other health issues. These disorders are typically inherited in an X-linked recessive pattern, meaning they are more common in males because they only have one X chromosome. Females are usually carriers of the mutated gene but may not show symptoms.
