Traits controlled by genes on the sex chromosomes are called what?

  • Correct Answer: chromosome-linked traits
  • male-related traits
  • gender-linked traits

Explanation: Traits controlled by genes on the sex chromosomes are called sex-linked traits . One gene on the Y chromosome determines male sex. There are very few other genes on the Y chromosome, which is the smallest human chromosome. There are hundreds of genes on the much larger X chromosome. None is related to sex. Traits controlled by genes on the X chromosome are called X-linked traits.
