Women can not be colorblind, only men. For questions like these a punnett square is useful. Men can not carry the colorblind trait, but women can. I know this is kind of confusing.
When a carrier ( a woman with the color blind trait) has children with a man ( color blind or not) her kids will have 50% chance of having that trait. If its a girl, she will be the carrier. If its a boy, he will have the colorblind trait.
SO TO ANSWER YOUR QUESTION:
Theoreticaly, 1 of the daughters will be the carrier, and the son will have a 50% chance of being colorblind.
Women can be colorblind, its just rare. About every 6400 women one is colour blind and with men, every 80 men 1 is colour blind.
recessive
Yes, red-green color blindness is typically an X-linked recessive disorder. This means that the gene responsible for red-green color blindness is located on the X chromosome, and individuals who inherit an abnormal gene on their X chromosome are more likely to express the trait if they are male, as they have only one X chromosome.
The alleles on the sex chromosomes are still dominant or recessive, the difference is that even a recessive trait on the X chromosome can be expressed if it is located at a gene locus that has no matching locus on the Y chromosome. The alleles for red-green color blindness are located on the X chromosome is a place that has no corresponding locus on the Y chromosome. Inheritance for a male child depends on the mother's genetics and, if she is a carrier, the male child has a 50% chance of being color blind.
Inheritance pattern: Color blindness is caused by a recessive X-linked trait, meaning the gene responsible for color vision is located on the X chromosome. Transmission: Since males have only one X chromosome, a single copy of the recessive gene will result in color blindness. Females need to inherit two copies of the gene to be color blind. Prevalence: Color blindness occurs more frequently in males because they have a higher chance of inheriting the gene from their carrier mothers.
Color blindness is an example of an X-linked recessive trait, which is a type of non-Mendelian inheritance. This means that the gene responsible for color blindness is located on the X chromosome, and the trait is more commonly expressed in males than females.

his mother because color blindness is a sex-linked trait that is found on the X chromosome, which is inherited from the mother, as opposed to the Y chromosome, which is inherited from the father. So a male can only inherit the gene for color blindness from his mom.

Red-green color blindness is usually inherited through a recessive gene located on the X chromosome. This means that the condition is more common in males, as they only have one X chromosome. Females can be carriers of the gene without showing symptoms.
Color blindness is a sex-linked trait that is caused by a recessive gene. Sex-linked characteristics occur more often in males because they only have one X chromosome while females have two X chromosomes. The X chromosome holds much more genetic information than the Y chromosome. So, while females need to have two recessive genes to become color blind, males only need one recessive gene to be affected. Therefore, males have a greater chance of inheriting color blindness.
female.
color blindness is one
Inherited on a sex chromosome, genetic disorders such as color blindness and hemophilia are caused by mutations in specific genes located on the X chromosome. These disorders are more commonly seen in males because they have only one X chromosome, making them more likely to express recessive X-linked traits. Females, with two X chromosomes, are typically carriers of the mutated gene but may not exhibit the disorder unless they inherit two copies of the mutated gene.
