<u>No, it does not, because the octet rule says that an atom needs to have eight electrons in its valence shell to be stable. The exceptions are hydrogen and helium, which need only two electrons. This atom has only one electron. </u>

Answer: The probability is 100%.

Explanation: The chromosome X is related to gender. A man carries two different chromosomes (XY) and a woman carries two similar chromosomes (XX). The offspring of a couple will inherited:

If it is a boy, he inherites the chromosome Y from his father and X from his mother;
If it a girl, she inherites X from her father and X from her mother;

In the question, the woman is color-blind, which means she carries the recessive alleles: $X^{d}X^{d}$

The man, on the other hand, is normal, so his X-linked genotype will be: $X^{D}Y$ .

Now, since they have a daughter, she inherited her double X from each of her parents, which means she inherited one $X^{d}$ from her mother and one $X^{D}$ from her father.
