Final answer:

Males are more likely to be colorblind due to the X-linked recessive nature of red-green color blindness.


Explanation:

Males are much more likely to be colorblind than females due to red-green color blindness being an X-linked recessive trait. Male offspring inherit their single X chromosome from their mother, which can carry the defective gene causing colorblindness. Females, on the other hand, need to inherit two copies of the recessive allele to be colorblind.
