Recessive genetic disorders result from inheriting 2 defective recessive alleles of gene ( one from each parent ). The x - chromosome holds about 10% of all human genes. Sex chromosomes are: males XY, females XX. Y-traits occure in males only. Y-disorders are rare.
Answer: Most recessive disorders are on the Autosomal recessive gene, and thus not x-linked.
