Sex-limited characters are traits that are only expressed in one sex, even though the genes for the trait are present in both sexes. These traits are typically controlled by sex-linked genes, meaning they are located on the sex chromosomes (X or Y). For example, male pattern baldness is a sex-limited trait that is only expressed in males, even though both males and females carry the gene for baldness.
