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..
How many types of blood are there?
There are 4 different blood types (A, B, O, & AB). Each blood type can either be Rh positive or Rh negative. (e.g., A+, A-, B+, B-, O+, O-, AB+, AB-).Blood type AB is the universal receiver when it comes to donating blood. That means anyone can donate blood to a person with AB blood.Blood type O is the universal donor, which means that anyone can take O blood. 'All other blood types can only be donated to their specific blood type (i.e. A-A, B-B.)A B AB O, each of which can be positive or negative, for a total of eight.
How could 2 parents with blood type A and B have a child with the blood type of O?
both parents carried the recessive gene for type O blood. the baby then inherited 2 recessive genes and received type O blood. the reason the parents didn't have type O blood is because they carried genes that were more dominant.
What are the 2 types of red blood cells?
1) Red blood cells - carry oxygen to the body.2) White Blood cells (Granulocytes and Agranulocytes) attack infections:-NeutrophilEosinophilBasophilLymphocyteMonocyteMacrophageDendritic
Can a parent with type a positive and a parent with type b positive have a child with o positive blood?
Depending on their genotype this can be possible. A, B and O refer to the so-called phenotype, which means the actual testable result of genetic information. The genotype on the other hand refers to the actual genetic information of an individual. There are basically three genes that code the AB0 system, a gene for A, a gene for B and a gene for 0 (actually there are subtypes, but this is not important here). Everyone has two genes, one on each chromosome of a pair of chromosomes. One gene is inherited form the mother, the other one from the father. This combination is called genotype. Depending on the combination of genes the four phenotypes are formed. The genotypes are AA and A0 for phenotype A, BB and B0 for phenotype B, AB for phenotype AB and 00 for phenotype 0. Now to answer the question precisely one would have to know the genotypes of the parents. For example if the parents are genotypes A0 and B0 then the children could have any of the four blood types. The answer would be "yes", as it is possible for the child to to inherit the gene (better a gene) for the positive rhesus factor if both parents have it. If on the other hand the parents have the genotypes A0/BB, AA/B0 or AA/BB then it is impossible for them to have a child with blood type 0 as no combination would produce the genotype 00 necessary for the phenotype 0. Conclusion: It it can be possible. So a child with blood type 0 positive can come from a couple with blood types A positive and B positive. But not all couples with this constellation of blood types will be able to have a child with blood type 0.
Can 2 negative blood types have a child with positive blood type?
Nope
Is it possible for 2 parents with type b blood to have a child with Type 0 blood?
Yes, they can have a child with blood type AB, which is the rarest of the four types.
If the father blood type is B and the mother blood type is B what type of blood will the baby have?
the baby can have several types depending on the parents phenotypes:1.phenotype- (BO)X(BO)the child can be 75% type B and 15% type O.2.phenotype-(BB)X(BO)the child can be 100% typeB.3.phenotype (BB)X(BB)the child will be 100% type B.
Can 2 A positive blood types create a RH negative blood type?
yes they can create a RHnegative blood type .
Can 2 blood type o parents have a child with type a?
the answer is no .. its just impossible
What is blood alleles - please explain in easy language and with example?
Blood alleles are the genes that determine what kinds of proteins will be present on the surface of red blood cells, which are called antigens. These alleles determine blood type - A, B, AB or O. There are actually only two proteins that are present in human blood, A and B. Type O blood is an absence of either A or B proteins. Therefore, blood type is determined by the genes you inherit from your parents. All humans carry two alleles. For example, one person may have one allele for A type blood and another allele for no protein (O type). This person will have type A blood. Another person may have one allele for B type blood and another allele for no protein (type O blood) and would be classified as having type B blood. If these two people were to have children together, they would be able to produce children with all four blood types. This is because each parent would contribute one allele to the child. If the child received the A from parent 1 and the B from parent 2, the child would have type AB blood - both the A and the B proteins present on the child's red blood cells. If the child received the A from parent 1 and the O from parent 2, the child would have type A blood. If the child received the O from parent 1 and the B from parent 2, the child would have type B blood. If the child received the O from parent 1 and the O from parent 2, the child would have type O blood - no proteins present on the child's red blood cells.
What complex pattern of inheritance reflects that of the blood type alleles?
Both parents have 2 blood alleles of 3 types: A, B, and O. Thus, parents can be type A (AA or AO), type B (BB or BO), type AB, or type O (OO). When they have a child, the child gets one allele from the mother, and one from the father. So, if both parents have type AA, the child will be type AA. If both have type AO, the child can be type A or O. It's rather simple.
Can 2 parents with type o have a child with a- blood?
the answer is no .. its just impossible
Can 2 parents with A blood type have an O child?
Yes, no worry about ABO.
What are the blood types which are rarer than others?
The most rare blood types are AB- with only 1% of caucasians having this blood type, B- with 2% and AB+ with 3%, this makes up the top three of the rarest blood types.
Can 2 A - positive parents make an o blood type baby?
A person with A positive blood may be a carrier for O negative blood. If the other parent is also a carrier of those traits, the baby could be O negative.
Father is o plus and mother is A plus what is the baby?
There are 4 genes involved in determining the the child's blood type, 2 of the apply to the A/B/O blood type. If the father is O it means the has 2 genes that are labeled i and tell his body not to produce A or B markers on the blood cells. The mother is A so she can be either A/i or A/A if she has the i gene there is a 50% chance the child will be type O and if she has A/A it is a 100% chance the child will be type A. Overall there is a 75% chance of the child having type A blood (can be further refined based on % of population in your country with A/A to A/i genes). the + or - blood type is determined by another 2 genes, both parents are plus so they can be either +/+ or +/-. All together this means there is a 62.5% chance of the child being +
