Answer:
Males have 1 X chromosome and 1 Y chromosome, and females have 2 X chromosomes. The genes that can give you red-green color blindness are passed down on the X chromosome. Since it's passed down on the X chromosome, red-green color blindness is more common in men.

If X chromosome in paternal chromosome carries colour blindness gene then male is prone to be suffering from colour blindness.
Because :-
- If male have only 1 chromosome from their mother, if that x chromosome has the gene for color blindness then the child will have color blindness.
- Mostly boy children are more common for color blindness.
