Genetics problems?????

Well, males are XY chromosomes so they have 1/12. Females are XX chromosomes but this means they can never be recessive for X and so females can never have red, green color blindness themselves but they can carry the gene for it. Parents genotypes are, Mother: xx (carrying recessive x genes for red green color blindness), Father, Yx (has recessive x genotype).
