Rh positive mother a positive baby?
If a person has the Rh factor, then they are positive. If they don't have the Rh factor, they are negative. The Rh factor is dominant, so a mother with it would have an Rh positive baby even if the father is negative for the Rh factor.
Is the phenotype which determine RH?
Genotype determines the rh phenotype. The two alleles for rh factor are rh+ (rh positive) and rh- (rh negative). The rh+ allele is dominant.
Do only women have to be concerned with the Rh factor?
No, both men and women should be concerned with the Rh factor. The Rh factor is a protein found on red blood cells, and it can cause complications during pregnancy if a woman is Rh-negative and her partner is Rh-positive. It is important for both partners to be aware of their Rh status to prevent such complications.
Could type O mother and an A blood type father have an RH child?
type O and A is the type, you also have an Rh factor-either positive(meaning you have the factor) or negative(the Rh antigenis not present). All blood types can have a positive or negative rh factor so you need to know whether you and the father or RH positive or negative
What type blood does a negative male and o positive female make?
There's not enough information to give the probable blood groups since no blood group was given for the male. However, an rh negative male and an rh positive female could produce either an rh negative baby or an rh positive baby. The male is definitely homozygous recessive for rh factor, but the female could be homozygous dominant for rh factor, in which case the baby would be heterozygous for rh factor and it would be rh positive. However, if the female is heterozygous for rh factor, there is a 50% chance the baby would be rh positive (heterozygous) and a 50% change the baby would be rh negative (homozygous recessive).
Why is RHoGAM administered to RH-mothers?
So that the mother's body doesn't produce antibodies against the Rh factor which would harm Rh Positive babies she may have in the future.
Rh positive mother a positive baby?
If a person has the Rh factor, then they are positive. If they don't have the Rh factor, they are negative. The Rh factor is dominant, so a mother with it would have an Rh positive baby even if the father is negative for the Rh factor.
What are Rh Factor?
Rh factor is a blood protein. About 84% of the population is Rh positive, meaning only 16% of the general population is lacking Rh factor (RH negative).
Where did RH factor get its name?
The rh blood factor was first observed in Rhesus monkeys
Can a rhesus negative mother with antibodies in her bloodstream go on to have a normal healthy baby?
Erythroblastosis Fetalis is a disease that affects mothers with a positive RH factor when their unborn babies have a negative RH factor. It only has negative side-effects during the second pregnancy.
Will there be complications having babies in my married life if my n my husband's blood group is the same?
It really isn't an issue in the modern medical field. Rh factor is when a woman is at risk when she has a negative Rh factor and her partner has a positive Rh factor. This combination can produce a child who is Rh positive. While the mother's and baby's blood systems are separate there are times when the blood from the baby can enter into the mother's system. This can cause the mother to create antibodies against the Rh factor, thus treating an Rh positive baby like an intruder in her body. This easily treated by an injection before birth.
Having which protein in blood we called RH factor is positive?
Having the Rh antigen protein in blood makes you RH factor positive.
Is the phenotype which determine RH?
Genotype determines the rh phenotype. The two alleles for rh factor are rh+ (rh positive) and rh- (rh negative). The rh+ allele is dominant.
What is the Rh blood group named after?
I think Rh is not a blood group. Rh stands for a factor and derived its name from factor found in the blood of Rhesus monkey.
Is Rh factor a factor in donating an organ?

Difference Between blood group A plus ve and A-ve?
Rh factor or rehsus factor is also involved in blood groups. either a person is Rh+ or Rh- if u are A+ then u have blood group A and you are Rh+ if you are A- then you have blood group A and you are Rh-
What is Rh positive and Rh negative mean?
Rh factor is a protein that is found in the blood of about 85% of the population. Those who have the factor are Rh positive, while those who don't, are Rh negative. A person who is Rh negative can safely donate blood to persons with or without the protein. A person who is Rh positive can only donate to those who are Rh positive.
