In humans, color blindness is a sex-linked recessive trait. A female who is a carrier (XBXb) for color blindness has children with a male with normal vision (XBY). Make a Punnett Square to help you answer the questions. What are the chances of their children being color blind? What are the chances of their children being ‘carriers’ for color blindness?

Communication

Communication is a method of transferring information between two persons or organisms. Communication is possible using mutually understood behaviors such as signs, symbols, or language. In the year 1980, S. F. Scudder proposed communication theory. According to his ideas, all living beings on the earth communicate, but the methods of communication differ. Communication skills are now part of soft skills.
