Color Blindness
Color blindness, also know as color vision defects, is the difficulty or inability to tell the difference between some shades of colors. Frustrations for those with color blindness include reading color-coded maps, buying clothing, and traffic lights.

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.

Can a person see colors and what a color blind person can see?
Im not sure exactly what you mean but if you mean can a colourblind person see colours of course we can we just see them differently and sometimes more obscurely. I personally find it annoying when people who know I'm colourblind ask me stuff like that. If you mean do colourblind and non colourblind people see colours differently; yes.

Why do Tigers have their color?
They are well camouflaged when stalking their prey from the tall grass. It is bone-chilling to see how well their stripes blend into the vertical shadows created by those tall grasses.
No. Like non-rodeo bulls, cows and other members of the Bos Genus (and other ungulates), rodeo bulls are dichromatic, meaning they don't see red but can see other colours, especially bluish and yellowish hues as well as purplish hues. In other words, cattle cannot see the entire visible light spectrum like most of us humans can, just certain hues.

How you describe a color red to a blind person?
This is a very interesting question, and believe it or not, it comes up frequently. I personally think (and I could be totally wrong), that there is no way to describe any color to some one who has been blind from birth. We can also ask, "does a blind person from birth dream, and if so what do they see, if anything." I will be looking in on this question from time to time. I am very interested in what others have to say.

ANSWER Color is also Different for every person, as your irises are different from others. If they have ever seen some color, then you could compare it, otherwise, then you would be just best to compare it to things that have tastes or colors, since how could they imagine it. Here is a good question, what do blind people see in their thoughts? Colors, even People?

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.
