Color blindness is not blindness; it is the inabilty to tell certain hues from certain other hues. It can be mild to severe. Red/Green color blindness is the most common. Probabaly about 5% of the general population in some degree. Data has been produced about specific populations and samples; however, there are no definitive global statistics. .
What else can I help you with?
Can colorblindness be passed on through genes?
yes, although not all the persons who have the color blindness 'genes' actually suffer its effects. they can be just carriers, who pass on the genes to the next generation. fyi: mostly males are affected by color blindness
A male who has normal vision marries a female who is a carrier for colorblindness can they have a colorblind daughter?
Assuming that the man who has normal vision is homozygous for normal vision, the couple's daughter will either be homozygous for normal vision or heterozygous (normal vision but carrier for color blindness) for normal vision. In light of this, the couple's daughter will not be color blind.
What is the amplitude if the frequency is 52 Hz?
There's no mathematical connection between amplitude and frequency. Knowing one doesn't make it possible to calculate the other. High-pitched sounds can be loud or soft. So can low-pitched ones. It's a little bit like asking: If the car drove 240 miles today, what color is it ?
A women wo isn't colorblind but has an allele for color blindness reproduces with a man who has normal vision what is the chance that they'll have a colorblind daughter?
There is no chance for a colorblind daughter because the x-chromosome that comes from the male is normal and then it does not matter which x-chromosome comes from the female because colorblindness is a recessive gene, therefore there is no chance.
Is frequency distribution mutually exclusive?
Yes. It doesn't make sense to have a frequency distribution WITHOUT the categories being mutually exclusive. For example, show a chart of the distribution of heights of children in a school. A given child is one specific height and so his contribution to the chart is in just one category. An example of where it doesn't make sense: percentage of shirts seen containing each color. You might have a total well over 100% since shirts can contain several colors, and so the colors are not mutually exclusive since a given shirt can be in two color categories. The colors are not 'exclusive' because blue does not exclude white.
In a survey 16 women out of 20 000 were found to be colour blind What is the expected frequency of colour blind males in this population?
Not all forms of color blindness are hereditary. There are three distinct types of hereditary color blindness, each with different frequencies in the human population, and with distinct genetic causes. Red-green color blindness is more common among males than females, but blue-yellow color blindness is not. Talking about color blindness in general, there is no reliable ratio of male-to-female prevalence.
What is the specific risk population for color blindness?
black or white
Who discover color blindness?
who discovered color blindness
Can people who are colourblind be pilots?
Generally, no. Some types of color blindness are OK for general aviation, but red-green color blindness is almost always a disqualification, because the wingtip lights are red and green.
What are the different types of blindness?
color blindness night blindness snow blindness
Does color blindness affect lawyers?
It affects every profession. You're born with it and about 7 % of the population is color blind to some degree.
Are all women carriers of color blindness?
Yes. See Wikipedia - Pingelap (#Color-blindness)
Which is NOT true of color blindness?
It is not true that color blindness is most common in females. Color blindness is most common in males and approximately 8 percent of men have it.
What is the usual cause of color blindness?
The cause of color blindness is X-linked factors.
How do people contract the disease color blindness?
Color blindness is hereditary and non-communicable.
How do you treat red-green color blindness?
Colour (color) blindness is genetic and is not curable.-- The question asks whether red-green color blindness is treatable, not curable.
How do you treat red green color blindness?
Colour (color) blindness is genetic and is not curable.-- The question asks whether red-green color blindness is treatable, not curable.
