My dad is colorblind.  He can see yellow but not red, which makes it
difficult at traffic stoplights.  In the lecture on Tuesday, we discussed
the opponent process and the color circle.  I was wondering, if people
with color vision get the color circle, what do people who are colorblind
have and why are they able to see some colors but not others?  I was also
wondering, do people who are colorblind have any cones in the fovea?  I
heard that colorblindness is due to heredity from the mother and that only 
males get it.  Is this true?
