Answer and Explanation:
We can assume that being colorblind is a recessive trait.
That means the father has a genotype of both lowercase letters, denoted as bb.
Let's make a chart.
- The Father's Genotype is bb
- The Mother's Genotype is Bb (Because she is heterozygous, which means she has one Dominant trait (B) and one recessive trait (r))
b b
B| Bb | Bb |
b| bb | bb |
We get 50% of the offspring to be colorblind, and 50% of the offspring to have normal color vision.
That means the expected percentage is 50%.
(Don't look too much into the capitalized MALE, its just there to throw you off guard and mess you up)
