Explanation:
Isotopes:
₁₅³¹P and ₁₅³²P
Given parameters:
₁₅³¹P ₁₅³²P
Mass number = 31 32
Atomic number = 15 15
The two atoms are isotopes. Now let us derive numbers of their subatomic particles
₁₅³¹P ₁₅³²P
Protons 15 15
Electrons 15 15
Neutrons (31-15) = 16 (32-15) = 17
Because they are isotopes, they differ in the number of neutrons alone.
Isotopy is the existence of two or more atoms of the same element having the same atomic number but different mass numbers due to the differences in the number of their neutrons.
We clearly see that the mass number and number of neutrons pertaining to the atom differs. This makes them isotopes.

Answer: Although both are X-linked recessive conditions, and therefore more likely in males, with the single X-chromosome. The recessive allele in colour blindness occurs at a higher frequency in the population and is a mild condition. Thus colour blindness does occur to a lesser extent in females because it needs the double recessive condition. DMD is a severe, disabling condition with a limited lifespan, and recessive allele frequency much lower, so the double recessive condition in females is very rare.
Explanation: DMD is an X-linked recessive, “nearly always in males” suggest that it also occurs due to a new mutation or some rare condition e.g. double recessive from an affected father and carrier mother, or inactivation of the normal gene in a heterozygote. It is also found that the defective allele is not completely recessive and that female carriers may exhibit mild to moderate effects.
colour blindness is polygenic, although the genes are all X-linked. It is more common in males than females. Females can carry two recessive alleles and so express the phenotype, but this is uncommon because the frequency of the recessive gene is low.
There are similarities in that both are X-linked recessives, therefore commonly expressed in males, who only have one X chromosome. The gene frequency of the colour blindness recessive is much higher than that of DMD, so the double recessive condition, which affects females, is more likely to be seen with colour blindness. In addition, DMD is a severe condition associated with disability and limited lifespan, which reduces the probability of mating between an affected male and carrier female

The sequence and number of amino acids is different (each protein has a unique sequence and arrangement of amino acids).
