A property professional with nearly 20 years experience of estate agency in Suffolk and North Essex. During that time I have carried out market appraisals on over 5000 residential properties and have helped over 1500 people successfully sell their home.
Therefore, a son from a color-blind mother (who receives the trait from his mother on the X-chromosome) will always be color-blind, regardless of the state of the father (who can only give his son a Y-chromosome).
If her father is not colour blind, a âcarrierâ daughter wonât be colour blind. A daughter can become a carrier in one of two ways â she can acquire the âgeneâ from a carrier mother or from a colour blind father. This is why red/green colour blindness is far more common in men than women. Blue colour blindness affects both men and women equally, because it is carried on a non-sex chromosome.
