yes, that is exactly what AB blood is and that is how blood type is inherited. Nice work
Blood type AB is inherited via codominance. It comes from getting an A allele from one parent and a B allele from the other parent.
There are three alleles for blood type: IA=Blood type A IB=Blood type B i=Blood type O The alleles for blood type A and B are codominant so when someone contains the IA and IB alleles, their blood type is AB.
Which statement describes the blood type of a person with the alleles IAi? It is type AB because I and i are codominant. It is type AB because A and i are codominant. It is type A because i is dominant and A is recessive. It is type A because A is dominant and i is recessive.
Blood types is a good example of codominance. There are three alleles for blood type, that can be represented as IA, IB, and i. IA and IB are both dominant to i, but when an individual inherits one of each the former two alleles (IAIB), he or she will have type AB blood. Instead of one allele being straightforwardly dominant to another, or the resulting phenotype being a halfway stage between the two alleles, the phenotype has aspects directly resulting from each allele.
* Type A alleles could be : IAIA or IAi* Type B alleles could be : IBIB or IBi* Type AB alleles : IAIB* Type O alleles : ii
Your parents determine your blood type. Your blood type is a cross of two alleles from the parent, one from each parent. Your parents could either give you AA, AO, AB, BB, BO or OO alleles, depending on which two alleles that they have.
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.
They have codominance.
Blood type is controlled by multiple alleles. Blood type is inherited by three alleles, one A, one B, and an O, which is recessive Ex. A= IAIA IAi B= IBIB or IBi AB= IAIB O=ii
Father could be AB, but an O mother is OO. so, AB X OO AO and BO are the only possible alleles from this cross
A person with phenotype AB blood must have genotype AB blood. Meaning that the person has inherited both A and B alleles.
Possible blood types are A, B, or AB. Basically, the offspring can be any blood type except for O.
A person with phenotype AB blood must have genotype AB blood. Meaning that the person has inherited both A and B alleles.
