Answer: X-linked recessive trait.

  • A Autosomal dominant trait
  • B Autosomal recessive trait
  • C X-linked recessive trait
  • D Y-linked trait

Correct answer: C. X-linked recessive trait

Explanation: Haemophilia is X-linked recessive. Males (XY) who inherit one affected X have the disease; females need two affected X chromosomes.
