To solve the problem of determining the probability of color blindness in the children of a normal visioned woman (whose father is color blind) and a normal visioned man, we can follow these steps: ### Step 1: Determine the Genotypes 1. **Identify the genotypes of the parents:** - The woman is normal visioned but has a color blind father. This means she must be a carrier for the color blindness trait. The genotype for the woman is X^C X (where X^C represents the normal vision allele and X represents the color blind allele). - The man is normal visioned and has no known color blindness in his family, so his genotype is X^C Y. ### Step 2: Set Up a Punnett Square ...
