it generally could if someone who was a male or female was color blind too. Like if your a boy.... and the person who was color blind was a girl then you might have gotten it from her.. usually you get stuff from the opposite sex then the same sex in a situation like this... there's nothing to be woried about.. this just means that you are more like the other sex then you are your own...

Color blindness primarily affects?
male
Are only males color blind?
Color blindness is carried on male genes only.
What does What are the possible outcomes for the offspring mean?
Offspring usually means 'children', or 'answers'. That should help. _____________ I'm guessing that it's a biology question, and it's dealing with genetics. If so the question is asking you to report all the different ways that the genes of the parent organisms can combine to produce different values for a given characteristic. For example, you might list one possibility as "male, with such-and-such eye color, or "male with color blindness", or "female carrier of color blindness", that kind of thing. The idea may be to determine how genotype and phenotype interact, and to determine from that the probabilities of having an offspring with a the various possible phenotypes.
What percentages can be expected in the offspring of cross between a female carrier for color blindness and a male with normal color vision?
50% probability that the sons produced from this union will be color blind. 50% probability that a son will not have the disease. 50% probability that a daughter will be a carrier of the allele for color blindness. 50% probability that a daughter will not be a carrier. Phenotypically this would be 1male color blind, 1 male not color blind, 1 female carrier and 1 female non-carrier. Assuming that the probability of male and female offspring is identical...this would be 25% of each genotype mentioned above. Based on phenotype, without regard to sex the percentages of normal to colorblind would be 75% to 25% with the 25% displaying the characteristic all being male.
What is the probability that a colorblind female and a normal color vision male will produce an colorblind offspring?
100% of all male offspring will be colorblind. 0% of all femal offspring will be colorblind.
If a color blind womnan married a color blind man what would their ofsprings genotype and phenotype be?
you can't predict that. it depends on what sex the offspring is. if it is a female, she could be color blind because her father is, but a male could be color blind either way. because color blindness is carried on the Y chromosome and not the X chromosome.
Is color blindness a sex linked disorder explain?
colorblindess is a sex-linked recessive trait. This means the females that are colorblind will give ALL male offspring colorblindness. colorblindness is on the X , so the male gets on X from mom and the Y from dad. So the male will have and affected X that he got from the mother
What are some genetic disorders that only run in a certain gender?
Color blindness happens only to the male gender.
What is a male offspring?
The male offspring of a person is called that person's Son.
What the x and Y chromosomes affect?
They determine the sex of the offspring in Humans.
Are women prone to color blindness than man?
Studies show that color blindness affects 8% of Caucasian men and only 0.5% of Caucasian women. Therefore, while the color deficiency is mostly a male dominated affliction, some women are also affected. It is believed that color-blindness comes from a gene on the X chromosome and thus would be part of life from birth. However, it has been discovered that color-blindness can occur with some diseases such as liver disease.
What color is the offspring of a white male peacock and a java green peahen?
