How Hemophilia is Passed
On
A few years ago, I created a Flash file to show how Hemophilia
is passed on. This was done for a high school biology class I was asked to
speak in. The red and blue XYs are normal genes and the green Xs are
hemophilia tainted genes. In case you aren't into biology... the XY is the
male and the XX is the female. You can progress through the presentation
by pressing the "Continue" button.
Below is a legend of what is shown in the presentation:
Red X, Blue Y = Male, Not Affected by Hemophilia
Red X, Green X = Female, Carrying Hemophilia
Two Red Xs = Female, Not Affected by Hemophilia
Green X, Blue Y = Male, Hemophiliac
Two Green Xs = Female, Hemophiliac
