A color-blind (X-linked) male with hemophilia A mates with a normal female. They produce a daughter with Turner syndrome who is not color blind. What is the daughter's risk of developing hemophilia?

her having teh disease 0%-CORRECTnod

no Q of her being carrier,she has only one X and ie from her mother;remember color blindness is also from father's X WHICH IS ALSO HEMOPHILIA A.
