Question

A man who is an achondroplastic dwarf with normal vision marries a color-blind woman of normal height. the man's father was six feet tall, and both the woman's parents were of average height. achondroplastic dwarfism is autosomal dominant, and red-green color blindness is x-linked recessive. how many of their daughters might be expected to be color-blind dwarfs?

Answer 1

The father is X^HY for colorblindness while the mother is X^hX^h for colorblindness, and when put in a Punnett Square the female children could only be X^HX^h. Because none of the daughters would be recessive for color blindness, none of them would be color-blind, whether they were dwarfs or not, so the answer is 0%.
