In order to have type O blood you must have two O alleles (OO). Both the child and the mother must therefore have an OO genotype. The Father must have contributed one O allele and could be one of 3 genotypes: AO, BO, or OO.

We are looking for the possible blood types of a FATHER.

Parental information:

  • Mother type O -- genotype OO - will contribute only an O gene
  • Baby type A --genotype is AO with the A contribution from dad
Baby receives one gene from each parent:
  • Baby is type AO
  • Father may be AA = Type A
  • Father may be AO = Type A
  • Father may be AB = Type AB
  • Father is NOT BB, BO or OO = Types B or O
Even without the father's information, because mom is Type O [genetically OO], the baby with Type A would have to genetically be Type AO.

If the mom is o plus blood and so is the child what blood types can the father have?

The child inherits one allele from each parent for their blood type. You said that the mom is o+ and so is the child. Therefore: The father cannot have the following blood type genotypes: AB+, AB-, AA+, AA-, BB+, or BB-. The father's blood type genotypes can be: Ao+, Ao-, Bo+, or Bo-.

How could two parents with blood types a and b have a child with o?

If the parents had the genotypes AO and BO, then they could have a child with Type O blood (there would be a 25% chance of this occurring).

Not necessarily. It could result in a O neg baby depending on their genotypes.


When O positive man marries an A Negative girl will their child have health problems?

Mixing blood types will not any impact on the health of a child, only the resultant inherited blood type. This particular mix will produce a child with an A pos or A neg or O pos or O neg blood group.


What does dominant means?

Co-dominance happens when two genotypes are expressed at the same time. For example, one parent can have blood type A and one parent can have blood type B and together produce a child with blood type AB. If two parents have the blood type AB, the child has a chance of being mentally ill.


If one parent has A-blood and the other has A plus blood is it possible for the child to have O-blood?

Yes! The genotypes of the parents can only be "OO" (means two O genes) so both of them cannot give a "B" gene to the child

What does co dominance mean?
