Choose the correct answer from the options given below:

Hint:

To easily distinguish sex-linked from sex-limited traits:
- Sex-linked traits are on the sex chromosomes (Z/W) and show criss-cross inheritance.
- Sex-limited traits are on autosomes but are expressed in only one sex (e.g., egg laying in hens, milk yield in cows).
