Could a type o individual and a type ab individual ever produce any offspring with type A blood?

Although both individuals have type o, their parents didnt necessarly have o. Some generations behind might (most likely) have had A, so by genetics their offspring got A.

A mutation occurs in the sex cells of a full-grown zebra. The mutation affects the genes responsible for producing blood proteins. What will most likely happen to the zebra?
The zebra will have offspring who cannot produce blood proteins.
Can o and b have an a?
No, O and B blood type parents can not create an A blood type offspring. The only blood type offspring that can be created by these parents is O+, O-, B+, or B-.
What are the phenotypes and genotypes of the offspring from the mating of a person with type B blood with a person with type O blood in codominance?
The offspring blood type with parents that have O and B blood types would come out with O positive. This is taught in biology. Based on the details of the question this initial answer is incorrect. Type O is not a dominant characteristic merely a common one. A person with type B blood could have a genotype of BO or BB so there are two potential answers to this question. The parent with O type blood can only have an OO genotype. If the parents are BB and OO then all offspring will be type B phenotypically and their genotype will be BO. If the parents are BO and OO then 50% of the offspring will have the BO genotype and 50% will have the OO genotype. Phenotypes will be B and O respectively. Since the question did not include any mention of the RH factor there is no way to determine that the offspring would be positive or negative. True codominance in blood types really only shows up with the AB genotype where the phenotype of the individual matches the genotype and the person has both A and B blood factors.
What are the blood types possible in offspring if both parents are type O?
We are looking for the possible blood types of a baby.Parental information:Mother type O --can only be OO = contributes the O geneFather type AB --can only be AB = contributes A and B genesBaby receives one gene from each parent: Baby is type AO = Type ABaby is type BO = Type BGenerally speaking, with these parents there would be a 50% chance of either having a Type A or Type B baby. HOWEVER: There is more to ABO blood typing that just the ABO gene.There is also an inhibitory gene that will change any genotype into the phenotype O.Therefore a person with genetically AB blood can be tested as having Type O.If the Type O parent has the inhibitory gene affecting his Type A, B or AB blood, then other blood types for the baby are possible.
What blood type will the offspring be if the Mother has A- blood and the father has O- blood?
the blood group of baby can be O,A,B or AB.
Could a female with B type and a man with AB type blood produce an offspring with O type blood?
Yes, an individual with blood type B can produce an offspring with blood type A. The explanation for this is that a mother with the blood type A can have a child with a father who has a blood type of A or AB and produce a child with type A blood.
What blood type can be found if the mother has type AB blood and the father has type A blood?
If the father is homozygous for the B blood group, giving him the BB blood genotype, and the mother's genotype is AB (the only genotype for the AB blood group), then their offspring could have either the AB or B blood groups. If the father is heterozygous for the B blood group, giving him the BO genotype, then their offspring could have the AB, A, or B blood groups. However, they could not produce an offspring with the O blood group.
What are minor genetics between parents and offspring?
The offspring of parents have half of the parents genes (as you already know) but the mixture will produce a totally unique individual. Some of the genes will be exactly the same between all of them such as blood type or eye color. Sometimes a mutation may have occurred which will produce a completely different expression of the genes.
If a man with blood type A and a women with blood type B produce an offspring what might be the offspring's blood type?
Depending on their actual genotypes and which of those genes the offspring receive, their offspring might have AB, A, B, or O blood type. For the man to have a phenotype blood type A he might have either genotype AA or Ao. For the woman to have a phenotype blood type B she might have either genotype BB or Bo.
What blood types or types can be found in an offspring if a mother has type AB blood and the father has type B nlood?
There are two possibilities.... either group 'O' - or group 'B'. Also, each group can be rhesus positive or negative - making a total of four combinations.
What blood type can be found in an offspring if a mother has type A blood and the father has B blood?
Without any further information about the blood types of the offspring's parents, you can say that the offspring of a parent with type A and parent of type B could have any blood type -- A, B, O, or AB.
What blood type will an offspring have if an individual with AB blood type marries an individual with O blood?
We are looking for the possible blood types of a baby.Parental information:Mother type B -- can be BB or BO = contributes B or O geneFather type A -- can be AA or AO = cantributes A or O geneBaby receives one gene from each parent: Baby is type AB = Type ABBaby is type AO = Type ABaby is type BO = Type BBaby is type OO = Type OWhen the parents are Types A and B, it is a possibility that their children will have every available ABO phenotypic blood type.
What blood type (or types) can be found in an offspring if a mother has A blood and the father has type B blood?
Without any further information about the blood types of the offspring's parents, you can say that the offspring of a parent with type A and parent of type B could have any blood type -- A, B, O, or AB.
What blood type can be found in an offspring if mother has type A blood and the father has type b blood?
Without any further information about the blood types of the offspring's parents, you can say that the offspring of a parent with type A and parent of type B could have any blood type -- A, B, O, or AB.
What blood type can be found in an offspring if a mother has a type A blood and the father has type B blood?
Without any further information about the blood types of the offspring's parents, you can say that the offspring of a parent with type A and parent of type B could have any blood type -- A, B, O, or AB.
Could a mother with type A blood and a father with type B blood produce a child with type B blood?
Yes! You could produce a child with either A or B blood.
What blood type can be found in an offspring if a mother has type a and the father has type b blood?
Without any further information about the blood types of the offspring's parents, you can say that the offspring of a parent with type A and parent of type B could have any blood type -- A, B, O, or AB.
