7. 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?

No. I got it right. Turner's sydrome is XO, so the daughter has only one X. She didn't get the color-blind (X-linked) from her Dad, that means her X is from mom. So she won't get her dad's hemophilia as well.

So the anser is 0.
