Mendelian genetics can explain the sex-linked trait. Sex-linked traits refer to the traits controlled by genes on the sex chromosomes. A pedigree is a method used to show how a trait is passed from generation to generation within a family. It shows relationships and identifies individuals with a given trait that is related to a sex-linked trait. Punnett square can also determine the expected ratios of possible genotypes in the offspring of two parents.
