how many percentage of the offspring becomes colorblind in the marriages between carrier female and normal male
a) 25% b) 50% c) 75% d) 100%
Dear student,
Option B is correct.
As the female is a carrier and male is normal , the female offsprings would be carriers but not affected.
So , only male offsprings will be diseased but there is a chance of inheriting a normal X chromosomes to the male offspring , so the probability of colour blind male will be 50 %.
Hope this information will clear your doubts about topic.
