Genetic disorder- Red green color blindness, some of the symptoms of being color
blind are identifying greens as purples or darker colors, low attention spans during
coloring activity, excellent vision at night, and sensitive to bright lights. Red green
color blindness is a sex linked trait whose allele is recessive and located on the X
chromosome. There are many people with color blindness among us, one of them
being Bill Clinton. Another celebrity who is colored blind is Fred Rogers. Color
blindness is a very common disability, and most of the time its not even a disability
it can be an upside or it can even help people.

Conclusion- in conclusion if its a girl 50% chance its a carrier, and if its a boy 50%
chance he will be color blind. You know the girl will have a 50% chance of being a
carrier because on the pedigree the 2nd generation the male is not a carrier or
affected at all but the female is and their offspring is color blind so you know that
the females are carriers. You know the male has a 50% chance of being a carrier
because the pedigree shows that a color blind males offspring isnt colorblind, and
the offspring is male.
