The results will mainly depends if the genetic symbol for the blood type is it Hetero or Homozygous.

i will explain that in Examples if :

1- A (homo) X B (homo) -----> 100% of the Kids will be Type AB.

2- A (hetero) X B (hetero) --> Kids will be Type A,B,AB,O 25% for each.

3- A (hetero) X B (homo) ---> Kids will be Type AB,B 50% for each.

4- A (homo) X B (hetero) ---> Kids will be Type AB,A 50% for each.

this is theoretically but Practically with both A and B blood types, all types are possible for offspring's :).

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.

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 gene
  • Father type AB -- can only be AB = contributes A or B gene
Baby receives one gene from each parent:
  • Baby is type AB = Type AB
  • Baby is type AO = Type A
  • Baby is type BO = Type B
  • Baby is type BB = Type B
Generally the baby could be any blood type but Type O.

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 baby's inhibitory gene has been turned "on", then no matter what ABO genes he receives from his parents, he will test out as a Type O.

Parental information:

  • Mother type B --can be BB or BO = Genes to contribute: B, O

Baby receives one gene from each parent:
  • Baby is type AB = Type AB
  • Baby is type AO = Type A
  • Baby is type BO = Type B
  • Baby is type OO = Type O
The baby can be any of the 4 ABO blood types, depending on the parents' exact genotypes.

Can 2 type o blood types have a blood type a child?

Parents of blood type O can only have children with blood type O. Because type O is recessive, you know that the parents are homozygous O.


Are all children of same parents the same blood type?

of course they can, it doesnt mean that if you dont have the same blood type as your siblings, your adopted or something. if your parent's blood types differ from each other there is a huge tendency that the sibling's blood types are different from each other. for exaple your father is a heterozygous A while your mother is a heterozygous B.. their children's blood types can be AB, and an O can also be one of the possiblities.. if its too complicated to understand then you can just learn it from your genetic lessons in biology..


What are the possible blood type outcomes of offspring with a mother with type A plus blood and father with B plus blood type?

This would depend on what the genotype is of the parents. They could have children with type A, B, AB, or O type blood. This is possible if they are both heterozygous if they are homozygous for their respective blood types they could only have AB children. Also the statistics for the blood types would change if one parent was homozygous and one parent were heterozygous.


Can a baby have the mother's blood type?

The two AB parents could have any of an A, B or AB, but not O.The two A parents could have either A or O children, but not B or AB.The two B parents could have either B or O children, but not A or AB.The two O parents could only have O children; they cannot have have A, B or AB.If both parents have rhesus-negative blood, so will their children. If both have positive, the child might be either.


Are blood types inherited through genes?

Yes, blood types are inherited through genetics of your parents and ancestors.

You could have several children with different blood types. you get your blood type from either parents or even grand parents.


Does your ethnicity affect your blood type?

You get your blood type (phenotype) from your parents, each of whom carry their parents blood types (genotype) in their blood. Your ethnicity plays a minor factor because some races tend toward different blood types, but any member of any race can end up with any blood type. Four children of the same parents could all have the different types of blood.

What could be the reason why a child is born with A blood types and both parents are O plus could the parents parent be a carrier of A blood type?

Parents should re-test their blood types to check if there was any error in their past result. there is no way to have A blood type baby if both were O


If both parents have 0 positive blood types could child have type A?

No.


Can a dad have a positive and mom have b positive?

I'm not sure what you mean by this but as for blood type, there's no reason two parents with different blood types can't have children. The children would have AB or O type blood depending on the recessives of the parents.


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).
