Does the father not determine the blood type of their offspring?

During meiosis (reproduction of sexual cells) the paired chromosomes are separated. Each gamete (sperm or ovum) contributes one chromosome to the zygote.
Therefore:
- · Type AB - made up of one A gene and one B gene
- · Type O - made up of two OO genes
- · Mom AB + Dad OO = Baby type AO or BO
The children of this AB X OO mating will have neither blood type of the parent.
Instead, they have a combination of the parental genes.

∙ 15y agoBoth parents determine the blood type. The father donates "half" of the blood type while the mother donates the other "half". The two factors can combine to produce several different kinds of blood type.
You may be thinking about sex of the offspring, the father determines the sex by donating either and X or a Y chromosome. - - - Each parent makes an equal contribution to determining the blood group of the offspring. In an individual human being, the blood group is determined by two copies of the blood group gene, one inherited from each parent. In all, there are three different versions of the gene: IA, a dominant form (allele) that, in combination with another copy of IA, produces blood group A; IB, a dominant form that, in combination with another copy of IB, produces blood group B; i, a recessive allele that , in combination with another copy of i, produces blood group O. IA and IB are codominant, and an IAIB individual has blood group AB.

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.
If someone cross a purebred mother with type B blood and a father with type AB blood what are the possible blood type outcomes of their offspring?
Based on Punnett squares, the possible outcomes are A, B and AB.
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 the mother is 0- and the father 0 can they have a bloodtype offspring?
If both parents are type O, they will always produce type O offspring.
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.
What will my child's blood type be if I have O and my spouse has A?
Unfortunately you can not determine what your child's blood type will be, however you can narrow it down. Offspring inherit the blood type of either the mother of the father. So your child will either have blood type A or blood type O.
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.
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 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.
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 (or types) can be found in an offspring of a mother has type O blood and the father as 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 is the offspring when the mother has blood type AB and the father has a blood type B?
Possible blood types are A, B, or AB. Basically, the offspring can be any blood type except for O.
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.
Bothe the mother and father have blood type O What are the possible blood types of the offspring?
O
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 blood type can be seen in an offspring if a mother has type A blood and the father has type B blood?
It depends on if one or both parents carry type O. If they do not, then the only type will be AB. If they do carry O, then the offspring can be AO, AB, BO or OO.
