- How and when does nondisjunction occur? What is the result of non-disjunction? In your own wordsarrow_forwardRed–green color blindness is caused by an X-linked recessive genetic defect. Hence females rarely exhibit the red–green colorblind phenotype but may be carriers of the defective gene. When a narrow beam of red or green light is projected onto some areas of the retina of such a female carrier, she can readily diff erentiate the two colors, but on other areas she has diffi culty in doing so. Explain.arrow_forwardA color-blind man has a son with a color-blind female. Will their son be colorblind? What is a chance that their son will not be colorblind? % Please explain:arrow_forward
