My husband is colour blind and we recently had a baby girl. I knowthat colour blindness is an X-linked recessive trait and that oneX-chromosome is randomly switched off in females because femaleshave two X-chromosomes and only need one. Does this mean that ourdaughter, as a carrier, could be colour blind in one eye or in someof her cone cells but not all of them?
