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

What was the chance that the child will be color blind?

The probability of a child being color blind depends on the parents' genetic makeup. If the mother is a carrier of the color blindness gene located on the X chromosome and the father does not carry the gene, the chances are 0% for a daughter and 50% for a son to inherit color blindness. If the father is color blind and the mother is a carrier, the chances are 50% for a daughter and 50% for a son to inherit color blindness.

What is the risk of a colour blind child in a family when father is colour blind and mother is normal?

if the child is a boy, 0%. if it's a girl, either 100% if the trait is dominant in the father or 50% if it is recessive. there is also the possibilty of the daughter having it but just being a carrier (has the disease but no signs of it)


A mother has one allele for color blindness and one allele for nomal vision what is the probability that her gamete will have the allele for color blindness?

Color Blindness is x-linked recessive. Therefore, it could not be heterozygous; the daughter would not be colorblind, but rather have normal vision.

In humans normal color vision is dominant over colorblindness. A colorblind male marries a female who is a carrier for color blindness. What is the probability that a colorblind child would be born to?

The probability of a colorblind child being born is 50%. This is because the male passes his Y chromosome to all his sons, and since he is colorblind, his sons will inherit the colorblind gene from him. The daughters will inherit their X chromosome from the mother and have a 50% chance of being carriers like her.

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.


Are all women carriers of color blindness?
