OpenStudy (anonymous):

but you where helpping me all the time too

OpenStudy (alphadxg):

@Somy Can't be on the Y chromosomes, so can't be A or B, there are very few Sex linked Dominant traits that can be passed, one would be HD, recessive would be hemophilia, color blindness etc.

OpenStudy (alphadxg):

@Somy VERY rare for a trait to be passed on the Y chromosomes.

OpenStudy (abhisar):

Mark zukerberg is color blind

OpenStudy (somy):

OpenStudy (abhisar):
