Is ABO blood group determined by multiple alleles?
* Type A alleles could be : IAIA or IAi* Type B alleles could be : IBIB or IBi* Type AB alleles : IAIB* Type O alleles : ii
Is the three alleles of the single gene that controls blood type is said to be what alleles?
multiple alleles
Why does the baby have only two alleles if the inheritance of blood type is controlled by three alleles?
Everyone only has two alleles for blood type. The parents each pass one down to the child.
The blood type trait which is controlled by more than two alleles for a given gene and therefore is called?
multiple alleles
What are multiple allels in biology?
Multiple alleles is a type of heredity in which one gene has more than two alleles. For example, in humans the gene for blood group has three alleles, A, B, and O. Even though there are three alleles in the population, a person can only inherit two alleles, one from his/her mother and one from his/her father.
Multiple alleles can be studied only in individuals?
Multiple alleles can be studied only in populations, not individuals. An example of multiple alleles would be blood type, each person has only one blood type, but a population has a many permutations.

An example of multiple alleles?
Blood type.

multiple alleles
Why is blood type controlled by multiple alleles?
Yes.
What is an example of multiple alleles?
blood type is an examples of multiple-allele inheritance.
What is the blood type in humans controlled by?
Blood types are controlled by multiple alleles.
What are blood types of humans examples of?
Blood type in humans is an example of multiple alleles.
Blood type in humans is determined by a single gene that has multiple alleles?
Each person has two alleles for their blood type, one dominant and one recessive. Except for type AB blood where the alleles are co-dominant. The allele for O blood is always recessive when paired with either an A or B allele.
