When does colorblindness occur?
it usually happens if one of your parents have the gene of color blindness or it somewhere in the family. and it just depends how bad it is.
If a color blind male who has normal clotting blood marries a female who is a carrier of hemophilia and has normal color vision could they have a color blind child?
In short, hemophilia has nothing to do with colorblindness, but YES, they could have a colorblind child if she is a carrier for the colorblindness gene. Color blindness is an X-linked trait. That means it is carried in the X chromosome, which differentiates whether a baby will be a girl or a boy. Women have two X chromosomes (XX), and men have an XY combination. If a woman is a carrier for color blindness, only one of her chromosomes will be affected (we'll call it a little "x"), and for that reason she will not be colorblind. Men, on the other hand, only have one X chromosome, so any time they carry the colorblindness gene, they will be colorblind. A woman will carry the colorblindness gene if: a. Her father is colorblind b. Any of her offpsring are colorblind She may carry the colorblindness gene if: a. Male family members (brothers, uncles, etc.) are colorblind A child inherits one chromosome from each parent. He/She will get an X chromosome from his/her mother, and an X from her father (if a girl) or a Y from his father (if a boy). So, If a woman has normal vision (assuming she does not have a family history of colorblindness), XX, and a man is colorblind, xY, they have several different chances for different offspring: Xx (a normal girl who carries the colorblindness gene) XY (a normal boy) Xx (a normal girl who carries the colorblindness gene) XY (a normal boy) The short answer is that ALL CHILDREN WILL HAVE NORMAL VISION. However, all daughters will be CARRIERS, meaning they can pass colorblindness on to their children.
What are the chances of a male with normal vision and a color-blind female having a color blind son?
Color blindness is an X-linked trait. That means it is carried in the X chromosome, which differentiates whether a baby will be a girl or a boy.

If Couples that have normal vision what is the probability of them having a color blind daughter and color blind son?
It depends on a number of different factors. If colorblind is common in either family but the mother/father were lucky enough not to get it, then its a recessive gene. but if its not common in either family then its a very low chance the child will be color blind. Although, if there are numerous people on both sides of the family the probability is very high. It all depends on a lot of different factors. How dominant is the gene? How many relatives are colorblind? If there are any, and they have children, are they colorblind? The easiest way to figure out if the child will be colorblind is to have the kid and test it for colorblind-ness.
