B,

since males only need one recessive trait for it to show, and the father is not colorblind, the mother at least has to be a carrier for the colorblindness trait.

The true statement about the mother of this family tree is that she is a carrier for color blindness.

The correct option is (B).

What is color blindness?

Color blindness is a disability in which you are unable to see colors normally. Color deficiency is another name for it.

It is a condition in which a person is unable to distinguish between different colors.

The most common colors are greens and reds, but it can also happen with blues.

This condition is only dominant in males, but females carry this disability as recessive carrier, so they can transfer this gene to the next generation.

Thus, option (B) she is a carrier for color blindness is correct.
