It could be inherited by the parents, that would be very likely, If the parents don't have color blindness, its not very likely.

All daughters are normal, half the sons are color blind. The above answer is incorrect. Half of the daughters are color blind and half of the sons are color blind. Since the father always donates color blindness, it is up to the mother in each case (in the son's case, the father is irrelevant) to determine if the child is color blind or not. Since she is a carrier, the chance is 50-50.
Color Blindness is x-linked recessive. Therefore, it could not be heterozygous; the daughter would not be colorblind, but rather have normal vision.
well actually i very much disagree, i believe that color blindness is a sex-linked trait; therefore, a girl (written Xc ) who receives one recessive allele for one red-green blindness WILL NOThave the trait, however a boy who receives one recessive WILL be recessive.

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.
Yes. See Wikipedia - Pingelap (#Color-blindness)
Most of the time, color blindness is first realized at a child's first formal vision examination, usually between the ages of 8 and 10. If the color blindness is severe (most of the time, it is a relatively mild form) then an alert teacher may suspect it at an earlier age.
It is not true that color blindness is most common in females. Color blindness is most common in males and approximately 8 percent of men have it.
The cause of color blindness is X-linked factors.
