    B)  colour blind sons and daughters

    C)  all colour blind

    D)  all normal

    Correct Answer: A

    Solution :

                     Colour blindness is a sex linked defect in which human beings are unable to distinguish red and green colour. The gene for   colour blindness   is   located   on X-chromosome. Therefore, a colour blind mother                                                                                                       \[({{X}^{c}}{{X}^{c}})\]  and normal father (XY) would have colour blind sons                                                                                                              \[({{X}^{c}}Y)\]  and carrier daughter x\[({{X}^{c}}X)\].
