It is true that men are more likely to have haemophilia.But the gene for this disease can be found on the X chomosome and this X chomosome is responsible for the disease haemophilia and men are having only one X chromosome so if one X chromosome is having haemophilia there will be no extra X chromosome to overcome this problem. So thats why men are more susceptible to haemophilia.

2)Neutrophils leukocytes phagocytizes bacteria.

3) Leukemia is caused by the cancer of haemopoietic tissue.

4)Thrombosis is the formation of abnormal clots in the blood.
