QUESTION
Milk production in cows is an example of?
OPTIONS
(A) Sex linked inheritance
(B) Sex Influenced inheritance
(C) Sex limited inheritance
(D) None of the above
ANSWER
(C) Sex limited inheritance
EXPLANATION
Milk production in cows is a sex-limited trait because although genes affecting milk production occur in both sexes, expression of the mammary-gland phenotype is normally restricted to females. Sex-linked inheritance involves genes located on sex chromosomes, and sex-influenced traits are expressed differently in males and females rather than being limited to one sex.
