4. What mode of inheritance is shown in the pedigree chart on the left? Justify your answer. 5. Construct pedigree charts using the inheritance of hemophilia in figure 92 (page 113). This is X-linked inheritance so you are required to label XX for females and XY for males. The gene responsible for the trait is represented by the superscript which should be specified in the legend.
