Red-green colorblindness is a inherited disorder in which individuals have trouble distinguishes

mariarad [96]

Since the colorblindness is located on the X chromosome, the man must have inherited his colorblindness from his mother.

<h3>X-linked traits</h3>

Women are XX while men are XY.

Also, the X chromosome in XY always comes from the mother.

Since the man is affected for colorblindness but his brother is not, it means that only one X chromosome of the mother is affected while the father can be affected or otherwise.

Assuming the father is free from colorblindness and the allele is represented by c:

$X^cX$ x $XY$

$X^cX$ $X^cY$ $XX$ $XY$

Thus, the man's genotype is $X^cY$ and it comes from the mother.
