Red-Green color blindness, or hemophilia.
X-Linked Inheritance
Color blindness happens only to the male gender.
Genetic disorders that are linked to either the X or the Y chromosomes. Red-green colorblindness and hemophilia are both sex-linked disorders.
Down syndrome is a polyploidy (three chromosome 21s)and is considered to be a somatic disorder. The other three are genetic because they are present in the form of a defective allele on achromosome.
Many different disorders are sex-linked. Saying something is sex-linked indicates that the gene causing the disorder can be found on one of the sex chromosomes, certain muscle disorders for example are sex-linked
Red-Green color blindness, or hemophilia.
Red-green color blindness is caused by a mutation in the genes that code for red and green cone cells in the eyes, affecting color vision. Hemophilia is caused by mutations in genes that code for proteins involved in the blood clotting process, leading to difficulty in clotting. Both disorders are inherited in an X-linked recessive pattern.

albinism. huntington's disease. color blindness. down's syndrome.
There are so many genetic disorder caused by sex linked to name few; Auto Immune disorder, Hemophilia, Night Blindness etc.
Exceptions are always there e.g hemophilia and many bleeding disorders don't affect females.

Hemophilia is not related to hemoglobin. It is a genetic disorder that affects the blood's ability to clot due to a deficiency in clotting factors. Hemoglobinopathies, on the other hand, are disorders related to the structure and production of hemoglobin.
Genetic disorders that are linked to either the X or the Y chromosomes. Red-green colorblindness and hemophilia are both sex-linked disorders.
these are both sex-linked. they are usually passed down from a carrier mother to a son.
