(C) Colour blindness is an $X$-linked recessive disorder. Let the genotype of the colour blind man be $X^CY$ and the normal woman be $XX$.The cross between them is as follows:$X^CY 	imes XX ightarrow X^CX, X^CX, XY, XY$.The offspring produced are two carrier daughters $(X^CX)$ and two normal sons $(XY)$.Since the sons receive their $X$ chromosome from their mother and $Y$ chromosome from their father,and the mother is normal $(XX)$,all sons will be normal.Therefore,the probability of their sons having colour blindness is $0 \%$.
