Why do sex linked traits follow different patterns of inheritance than other traits ?

The right answer is A
The XY system of sexual determination is a genetic system of sex determination found in humans, most mammals, some species of insects (Diptera) and plants (Silene latifolia). He states that:
Females (women for humans) have two identical chromosomes (XX) while males (men for humans) have two distinct chromosomes (XY). X chromosome is longer than Y chromosome.
