Since Michael is colorblind it is caused by the gene of the mother.

Explanation:

  • Michael is a male person. This means that he has xy chromosome. Every Mel person inherit the X chromosome from his mother and the Y chromosome from his father.
  • now coming to colour blindness, it is a disease which is X linked recessive. As a result this disease is due to the defect in the X chromosome
  • As a result since Michael is a male patient ,it is for sure the effect of the gene from the mother of Michael which caused him to be colorblind. However the mother may not be colour blind if she is a career.
