Solution
Haemophilia is an X-linked inherited disease in which the affected person is unable to synthesise a normal blood protein called Antihaemophilic globulin, which helps with clotting. Haemophilia is also called bleeder’s disease, as the haemophilic person bleeds for a long time even from a minor cut.
