Hemophilia is a sex linked recessive disorder. It is a disorder that impairs the body's ability to make blood clots. Therefore causes an individual or patient to bleed for a longer time after an injury, bruising, and an increased risk of bleeding inside joints or the brain. There are two main types of Hemophilia that is Hemophilia A and Hemophilia B. The Hemophilia A is due to low amount of clotting factor VIII and Hemophilia B is due to the low level of clotting factor IX. They are inherited from the parents via X chromosome carrying a non functional gene.
