Answer
Carrier daughters and normal sons
Reason — Since the mother is normal so the daughters will be carrier due to the X chromosome received from father but sons will be normal.
| Colour-blind father (X°Y) | ||
|---|---|---|
| X° | Y | |
| Normal Mother (XX) | XX° Carrier daughter | XY Normal son |
| XX° Carrier daughter | XY Normal son | |
