Quick Re-cap
We are dealing with X-Linked RECESSIVE traits only (nothing on the Y)

Females = XX

Males = XY

A or AA or Aa = DOMINANT = NORMAL

aa or a = recessive = sick

Codominant = Both

Incomplete dominance = Blended a

 A female that is a hemophiliac marries a normal
male. What are the parents genotypes?
A = DOMINANT = NORMAL

h h H a = recessive = sick

Females have 2 X Chromosomes and can be carriers X^H X^h
Males only have 1 X Chromosome
