red-green
-
red-yellow
-
yellow-green

Pregunta
Issue with X-linked gene producing red-green colour vision deficiency affects more men than women. Why?

Because women's genes are able to compensate for the deficiency

Because men are not able to compensate for the deficiency, due to a lack of X chromosome
