Red-green color blindness is caused by an X-linked recessive allele. Suppose a color-blind man and a woman with normal vision and no family history of color blindness married and had a daughter who was color blind and had Turner syndrome. Explain how this could happen citing which parent(s) could be responsible and where NDJ could occur.
