Answer:

The Genotype: Cc

Step-by-step explanation:

On a punnet square if the dad carries the gene as a homozygous dominant trait that the would make his genotype: CC

For the mother, she would have hers as cc which would mean that the probability of her being colorblind is 1/2 so she would not be color blind
