The disease hemophilia (abnormal blood clotting) is caused by a recessive allele, and the gene is located on the X chromosome. If an X chromosome contains the allele for hemophilia, we will write it like this: X*. If the X chromosome contains the allele for normal blood clotting, we will write it like this: X. A mother is a carrier for this disease, but she does not have the disease. Her genotype is XX*. Her husband does not have the disease. His genotype is XY.
Use a Punnett square to predict the probability that their child will have hemophilia. Can you tell if that child is a boy or a girl

do you have any ideas on how to start thiis?

We have a mother (XX) and a father (XY). Let's use X* for the X chromosome that carries the disease version of the gene. So, X*X and XY. Do a Punnett square.  Remember, it is recessive so to have the disease an individual must have only the X* version. Either X*X* or X*Y.
