Where does the human embryo get blood from mother or father?
The mother shares her blood with the fetus. The fetus makes its own blood. The mother's blood comes in close proximity to the fetal blood to exchange oxygen and nutrients, but the two bloods do not mix. If they mixed, mother and baby would always have the same blood type - which is not true.
How many chromosomes do both your mom and dad give a child?
Exactly half of all chromosomes come from mother. The other half comes from father. This is true for ALL species that sexually reproduce.
Does a child have to have the mothers or fathers blood type?
Blood type of a child is determined equally by both parents. Each person has two alleles for their ABO blood type. One allele comes from mom, the other comes from dad. A and B alleles are dominant over the O allele. So blood type O people are two O alleles, one from each parent. Blood type A people can be AA or AO. People with AO are still considered blood type A because A is dominant over O. Blood type B people can be BB or BO. People with BO are considered blood type B because B is dominant over O. Blood type AB people got an A from one parent and a B from another parent. But since A and B are equally dominant, you're AB.
Does a baby necessarily have mothers or fathers blood group?
The same blood flowing in the body of the mother, flows in the child. So the mothers. As to the bloodtype it will have its own, either the same as one parent or a combination of the two. Mothers with negative blood who have children with positive blood are at greater risk of having a miscarriage. The Mothers blood NEVER comes in direct contact with the developing baby. The mother's blood supplies nutrients to the placenta which transfers nutrients (and oxygen) to the baby's blood.
Are sister chromatids or homologous chromosomes more similar?
Sister chromatids are replicated DNA and are identical. Homologous chromosomes are not, as one comes from the mother and the other comes from the father.
Can a b neg father have an A pos son?
A father with the blood type can be b negative can have a child even a son that is A positive. The blood of a child comes from one or the other parent. If the mother is A positive the child can be as well.
If the father is o and mother is o- can they have a b child?
it is rare, but yes. however, blood poisoning is possible and the child could have to have a full blood transfusion if the mother doesn't take pills that the doctor prescribes for the mother if they realize that something is wrong. no, your blood type is in your DNA, and that comes from both parents only, each child gets 50% DNA from each parent.
Which religion must the child of a non Muslim mother and a Muslim father follow?
In Islam, the child follow the father's footsteps when it comes to religion.
Why are there differences between the DNA charts for the mother and the child?
There are there differences between the DNA charts for the mother and the child because the child only shares one half of the mother's DNA. The other half of the child's DNA comes from the father.
What are the implications of having type a negative blood?
The negative blood comes from the rhesus scale. So type A negative blood means you are rH negative. This poses a potential problem during pregnancy if the mother is rH negative and the father is rH positive. In that case the mother will receive a rhogam shot during pregnancy and right after birth to prevent the potential mixing of blood between mother and child from causing a serious reaction in the mother's body.
Is a step father a parent?
I would say it all comes down to opinion. I think legally they are because they are taking care of the child and are also married to the child's mother/father. The child may not like them and decide they are not their parent.

Can an a negative mother and a b positive father have an o positive child?
Yes, it is possible that an A negative mother and a B positive father can have an O positive child. Because looking back to the basic of Genetics, Blood Banking, Immuno/Serology. A parents whose blood groups are A and B can possibly have all the blood groups in their offspring (A, B, AB, and O) most specially if both parents blood groups are A and B genotypes. When it says genotype, meaning the parents are either AO or BO. The genotypes are the genes/traits that are not expressed (recessive traits) or are hidden. Meaning that the O gene in an AO genotype blood is not expressed and only the A gene which is the Phenotype in that particular blood group is only expressed (dominant traits) thus showing as a type A blood, and same goes with the BO genotype blood group. So going back to the question if an A negative mother and a B positive father can have an O positive child, then the answer is YES most specially as I mentioned earlier if the both parents are A and B genotype blood group. Then when it comes to Rh grouping (being negative or positive) since both traits are present in the parents (A negative mother and B positive father) then all the offspring can inherit both traits.
Can a child's genotype be different from that of both parents?
A genotype is decided from two alleles. One of these alleles comes from the father, and one comes from the mother. Thus it should be clear that the genotype can be different from both parents. For instance, suppose the father has genotype AA, and the mother has genotype aa. In this case, the child will have genotype Aa, which neither parent has.
Does a child have their mother's or father's blood?
NO. You have to remember that each parent contributes one gene.For instance, look at these examples:Mama type A (AA or AO) + Papa type A (AA or AO) = Baby type A or type OMama type A (AA or AO) + Papa type B (BB or BO) = Baby type A, AB or OMama type A (AA or AO) + Papa type AB = Baby type A, B or ABMama type A (AA or AO) + Papa type OO = Baby type A or O
Was Harry Potter's father a half-blood?
His father is a muggle and his mother is a pure blood witch. That makes him half-blood. His mothers maiden name is Eileen Snape, née Prince, combined to 'half-blood Prince'.His mother's name is Prince, and he is a Half-Blood (his father is Muggle, his mother is witch).
How does someone know there going to be a good father?
I'm not a man, but no one knows they are going to be a good father. They may have a slight idea. They may think so. I'm only 20 and I wonder whether or not I'm going to be a good mother. I don't think anyone is truly a good mother or father until they experience. With experience comes skill and knowledge. That's how I feel about it. You will have love for that child, you will do your best to nurture that child, but the goodness comes from learning and that experience you get with that child.
