Before it hits your tap, unfiltered water from the Catskills winds its way through 6,000 miles of pipes aqueducts and tunnels.

Most of New York City's water -- 90 percent -- comes from the Kensico Reservoir. It holds 30 billion gallons and then travels to the ultra violet treatment facility in Westchester County, where 12,000 bulbs treat 1 billion gallons of water a day.

Hope this helps

Answer:

50%

Explanation:

Let the allele for red-green color blindness be represented by c.

Normal vision woman whose father is color-blind will be $X^CX^c$

Color-blind male will be $X^cY$

$X^CX^c$ x $X^cY$

Progeny: $X^CX^c, X^CY, X^cX^c, X^cY$ (See the attached image)

Out of the 2 male progeny, 1 is affected for color-blindness while the other is not affected. This gives a 50% probability that a son of the couple will be color-blind.
