Question

The family pedigree below shows how the mutation for color blindness affects three generations.









What does this pedigree suggest about genetic mutations?




that mutations can be passed from one generation to the next





that males cannot inherit a mutation





that mutations always occur randomly in families





that color blindness is a helpful mutation

Answer 1

you didn't include the pedigree, but i'm going to go with the obvious answer about heredity. Mutations are passed in a parent-to-offspring fashion.
