Red-green colour blindness is a sex-linked trait. Red-green colour blindness (Xrg) is the inability to distinguish between red and green colours. The Xrg allele is recessive to the normal X-linked allele. A normal woman has a father who has red-green colour blindness. She had a child with a man who does not have red-green colour blindness. What is the probability they will have a son with red-green colour blindness? Select one: a. 0 b. 0.13 c. 0.25 d. 0.50

Red-green color blindness is an X-linked recessive disorder. If Allison is heterozygous (a carrier), and her husband, Michael, is NOT colorblind. What is the chance that their male children will be colorblind? (Note: you are calculating the probability for their MALE children only, in other words if they have 1 male child, what is the probability that he will be born with the disease?) 0% 25% or 1/4 50% or 2/4 75% or 4/4 100% or 4/4

A type of red-green colorblindness is inherited recessively on the X chromosome. A woman who is a carrier had children with a male that is not affected by the disease. Show your answers with the use of a Punnett square • What is the probability (% or likelihood) that a child is affected by the disease? • What is the probability (% or likelihood) that a son is a carrier? (Careful!) • Is there a chance that a girl of the couple is affected by the disease?
Greg is color blind and marries Susan, who is a carrier for color blindness. Color blindness is an X-linked, genetic trait. Draw the Punnett square for their children.

In humans, blue eyes are inherited as a recessive autosomal trait and color blindness is an X-linked recessive trait. A woman with blue eyes and normal color vision (her father was colorblind) marries a man who has normal color vision. The man has brown eyes, but his mother had blue eyes. What is the probability that this couple will have a son with brown eyes? What is the probability that this couple will have a color blind son with blue eyes?
