Answer:

The probability of their first child being colourblind is 1/4

Explanation:

Red-green color blindness is an X-linked recessive disorder.

A woman with normal vision whose father was colorblind has children with a man with normal color vision.

In an X-linked condition, the males only need to get one copy of the affected allele to have the condition and this copy is also inherited by a female offspring.

So in this case, the woman receives the affected recessive allele copy from her dad but since she still has normal vision, she received the normal copy from her mom so she is heterozygote for the trait.

The woman with normal color (XRXr) has a father who is color blind (XrY) has children with a normal man (XRY)

The cross would be

XRXr x XRY

XR Xr

XR XRXR XRXr

Y XRY XrY

Probably of having an affected child is 1/4. Thus, the probability of their first child being colourblind is 1/4

Commensalism relationship is shown between cattle egret and cattle.

Usually cattle egrets follow herds of large hoofed mammals such as cattle, buffalo. They eat the insects that have been stirred up by the buffalo as they move. This relationship is commensalism, because the birds benefit but the ungulate is neither harmed nor helped.

The cattle egret and grazing cattle in a close association is a classic example of commensalism. It is a common sight in rural areas where one can see ticks hovering over the cattle. They feed on cattle's blood and hence are harmful to them as they can transmit several diseases. The cattle egret and grazing cattle in a close association is a classic example of commensalism.
