Final answer:

Hemophilia is a sex-linked disorder primarily affecting males due to its inheritance on the X chromosome.


Explanation:

Hemophilia is a sex-linked disorder that is found on the X chromosome. It occurs predominantly in males because they only inherit a single X chromosome and if the gene for factor 8 or 9 on it is defective, they will have the disease. Females can be carriers of the trait and may pass it on to their male offspring. Other examples of sex-linked disorders include red-green color blindness.
