What is the chance that the child be color blind?

The chance of a child being color blind depends on the genetic background of the parents. Color blindness is often inherited in an X-linked recessive pattern, meaning males are more likely to be affected since they have only one X chromosome. If the mother is a carrier of the color blindness gene, there is a 50% chance that her son will be color blind and a 50% chance that her daughter will be a carrier. If the father is color blind, all of his daughters will be carriers, while none of his sons will be color blind.
