Explanation:
Both red-green color blindness and and shape of hairline are independently assorting genes.
Red-green color blindness is X-linked recessive while hairline shape is autosomal dominant.
The man who has widow's peak had a father with straight hairline. This means that the man is heterozygous for the trait.
Assuming hairline shape is represented by S. A heterozygous widow's peak man will have a genotype of Ss. A straight hairline woman will have a genotype of ss.
Assuming the allele for colour blindness is c. A normal vision man will have the genotype while a color blind woman will have the genotype
.
x
<em>The man does not have the color blind allele and a daughter will need two color blind alleles (one from the father and the other from the mother) in order to show the trait.</em>
<em>This means that the probability of the couple producing a color blind daughter is 0. Hence, the chance that any daughter the couple has will be color blind with a straight hairline is also 0.</em>
The correct option is A.
