Answer 5

yeah me too....Here is the explanation:

C) is absolutely, without a doubt, the correct answer.

Females are XX and males are XY.

In the case of a female, a recessive trait carried on one X chromosome can be masked by the dominant trait carried on the other X chromosome.

In the case of a male, a recessive trait carried on the one and only X chromosome will be expressed, because there is no other X chromosome to possibly mask the recessive trait. The male is XY.

Males will always express it more often than females will.
