It's impossible because A blood type could be AA or AO and AB is only AB so the children could be AA, AB,AO (which is Atype), or BO (B type) BUT NEVER OO (o type). For the child to be O type they should get one O from one parent and the other O from the other parent. In the case mentioned AB can give A or B NOT and NEVER O. This question is answered by an MD

No. The "O" in blood typing should actually be viewed as a zero, meaning the absence of either A or B markers in the blood. So, a type O person has no A nor B markers in his or her blood. Because such a person has no A or B trait to pass on to a child, such a parent could not possibly have passed on a B trait to the child. And the parent with A positive blood has no B trait to pass on, either. Therefore the child from such a pairing cannot be AB positive, because neither parent has the B trait to pass on to the child.

Yes.

Parent 1 is O positive. This means both the blood-type genes are turned off and at least one of the Rh factor genes is turned on. Maybe both.

Parent 2 is AB negative. This means one of the blood-type genes is set to A and the other to B, and both Rh factor genes are turned off.

Because both the A and B blood type genes are dominant, you only need one of them to cause the child to be either A or B. This means any child these two have will be either A or B, but never O and never AB.

The Rh factor is a little trickier, but not too much. If one of Parent 1's Rh factor genes is on and the other off, the child can be either Rh positive or Rh negative. If both of Parent 1's genes are turned on, the child will always be Rh positive.

Yes, absolutely. The O+ parent can only give a type O gene, because it is recessive and the genotype of this parent is OO. The type AB parent has a 50-50 chance of passing on either a type A gene or a type B gene to their offspring, so in this pairing, you'd expect half of the children to be type A and half to be type B. The positive rh factor is dominant, so if both parents are rh+, the children most likely will be also, although it is possible to have rh- children if both parents carry this recessive gene.

No. An AB parent can only produce an A, B, or AB child.
