Solution:

: Baldness is not a sex chromosome linked disease. Baldness is an example of sex-influenced character. Sex influenced or sex controlled genes are located on autosomes, but their phenotypic expression is affected by the sex of the individual. This trait is dominant in male and recessive in female. Baldness is the typical hair loss pattern of males wherein the alopecia begins in the frontal area and proceeds until only a horseshoe area of hair remains in the back and temples.
