How the world looks to a person with tritanopia

Expert Solution
Step 1

Tritanopia is a very rare color vision deficiency(CVD) in which only the red and the green cone pigments are present, but there are no blue retinal receptors.

Tritanopia is not a sex-linked trait. It is related to chromosome 7. So, both males and females have an equal probability of getting it. It is believed to affect only 0.0001% of men and women.
