And Organism's genotype is the organism's specific combination of alleles in a any given gene.
Yes - AB Parent has genotype IA IB . If the parent with B blood has the genotype IBi, which is entirely possible, then there is a chance that the baby would be IAi, and would have type A blood. Plus/minus has to do with the RH factor in blood, so you can't tell from the information given whether the baby could be "plus". If one of the parents is RH+, the baby could be as well.
AB red cell donations can only be given to AB recipients. But whole blood donations are separated into different products and AB plasma can be given to other blood groups
TY
Rh O negative is the universal donor, and can be given to anyone regardless of their bloodtype.
This cross AO X BO, would yield that genotype. This cross, AA X BO, would not yield BO. AO X BB would not do it either. So, I assume only AO ( and, from the info given, BO ) is possible for mom.
It is a false statement that "phenotype determines genotype". In fact, it is the opposite. A genotype is the genetics or "instructions" that determine the phenotype. The phenotype is the actual appearance, ex: blue eyes, that is created by a given genotype.
Nope - O negative is the only group that can be safely given to the patient if their blood group is unknown.

Blood group O This blood type has neither 'A' or 'B' antigens in it and can be given safely to anyone (even if, for example, if they are A positive).
no it can not because just like water and a brick is different by solid and liquid that way positive and negative blood groups are different
A genotype is a group of genes that influence a given trait, whereas a phenotype in this case would be that trait. An example of a sentence using the word "genotype" is "The different genes you inherit from your parents make up the genotype that determines your eye color. "
