There are five common features characterizing X-linked recessive inheritance, such as red-green color blindness. Which of the following statements about inheritance patterns of X-linked recessive traits in humans is FALSE? O Often, the transmission of the recessive allele from grandfather to daughter to grandson gives the appearance of generation-skipping Matings of recessive males (cY) and carrier females (Cc) can not produce the recessive phenotype in females. o If a recessive male (cY) mates with a homozygous dominant female (CC), all progeny have the dominant phenotype. All female offspring are heterozygous carriers (Cc), and all male offspring are hemizygous for the dominant allele (CY). As a result of male hemizygosity, more males than females have the recessive phenotype
