Answer is : (d) Pattern baldness
Pattern baldness is a autosomal trait in humans. The trait may be displayed by both males and females, but the expression of these genes is dependent on the hormonal constitution of the individual.
Muscular dystrophy is a genetic disorder characterised by progressive skeletal muscle weakness. It involves mutated X – chromosome gene. G – 6 – PD deficiency syndrome and Hunter syndrome are also due to X – linked inheritance.
