Color blindness is a recessive genetic condition that lies on the X chromosone.

Since it lies on the X chromosne men are two times more likely than females to have colorblindness because men have one x chromosone and females have two.

Majority of people do not go colour blind but are born that way. As of this they may see certain colours the same but they can still tell a lot of them apart as they know what the colour is.

Unlike popular belief scientists have discovered that people do not see the colours the same and therefore colour blindnedss is not entirely accurate. Everybody has elements of colour blindness. If you were to discover that you were colour blind you wouldn't notice any difference.

Hope this helped.
