Sagot :

Man can't have red-green color-blindness unless their is a mutation.

In general, A red/green color blind boy will not receive a color blind 'gene' from his father, even though if   father is color blind, this is  because father can only pass an X chromosome to his daughters. Males only gets 1 X chromosome, from mother. If that X chromosome has the gene for red-green color blindness , they more likely to have red-green color blindness.
