I need help with this problem

Color-blindness is caused by a recessive gene on the X chromosome and of course does not cause death at an early age. What would be the result of these crosses? Include a Punnett Square with your expected phenotypic ratios.

  1. A normal woman whose father is color-blind is crossed with a normal male.
  2. A carrier female marries a color-blind male. What are their chances of having a color-blind baby (any sex)?
