Answer 1

The Correct Option is C

Hemophilia is a genetic disorder that affects blood clotting. It is an X-linked recessive condition, meaning that it is carried on the X chromosome. Males are more commonly affected because they have only one X chromosome. Hemophilia results from deficiencies in clotting factors such as factor VIII (Hemophilia A) or factor IX (Hemophilia B), leading to prolonged bleeding.
