Question
which condition is more likely to be developed by men than women?
diabetes
color blindness
breast cancer
cystic fibrosis
Color blindness is an X - linked recessive disorder. Males have one X and one Y chromosome. If they inherit the defective X - linked gene for color blindness, they will develop the condition. Females have two X chromosomes and need to inherit two defective copies to be color - blind, making it less likely for them compared to males. Diabetes affects both genders, breast cancer is more common in women, and cystic fibrosis affects both genders equally in terms of genetic predisposition.
