Solution:

Color blindness is a frequent genetic illness, meaning it is handed down from one generation to the next. When a father is colorblind, his daughter can only inherit an X chromosome. As a result, even if his father is colour blind, a colour blind boy cannot inherit a colour blind gene from his father. Only the Y gene can be passed down from father to son.
