Option D Haemophilia is a X-linked recessive disorder in which person do not produce clotting factor. Female have XX chromosome in which one X is affected and one X is normal. When she inherit affected X chromosome she has second normal chromosome which compensates the haemophilic gene and thus, called as a carrier. But haemophilic father (XY) inherit haemophilia to all his daughter because she carries one X from father and one from mother whereas none of his sons will be affected because he carries only Y chromosome from his father
