Not normally. Father can only contribute an O. Mother can contribute a B, or perhaps an O (if she has BO genes). Child would be either O or B (with BO genes). However, rare exceptions do exist.

Yes, an AB negative mother and an O positive father can have a child which is B negative. However, the father must be heterozygous for the Rh factor (+-).

The possible children from an AB- and O+ cross are; A-, A+, B- and B+

No - if both parents are B, then the child cannot be AB.

The two options for a child whose parents have type B blood are B or O.

In order for the child to inherit an A at least one parent must be A or AB.

No. A and B blood types are dominant and O blood type is recessive in terms of genetics. This means for example that if both an A and an O gene are inherited, the A gene will be expressed and the bearer will have A type blood even though they carry the O gene as well. The case is the same for if a B and O gene are inherited. If an A and a B gene are inherited they are both expressed leading to an individual with AB blood type. This means that the only way that blood type O can be inherited is through getting an O gene from both parents.
The result of this is that any individual that has O type blood can only have genes for O type blood, and so two parents, both with this blood type, cannot have a child with AB type blood.

No. An AB father does not have an O allele and can only pass on an A or B allele to his child. So the child will either be type A or type B, but not O.

Can an o positive blood type father parent an ab negative type child?

Before you make rash decisions, make sure all tests are confirmed. First, The AB negative mother should be able to give birth to A-.A+,B-,B+,AB-,AB+ child. The mother is the one that can not, if all the tests are correct, have an O child. The father, if he is A -, can only have A-,A+,B-,B+,AB-,AB+.O-,O+.Now let me explain. There are two slots for A,B or empty(O). The father can be AO, or AA in this case. The mother is AB. She has to contribute either the A or the B, usually. Please notice the usually.Final answer, no because of the mother's contribution unless there is a mutation.

Can a type ab mother also have an ab child?

Why not? If a mother is type AB, it means she has A and B antigens in her and zero antibodies. If the father is type A, B, or AB, there is a chance that the child can be type AB. It all depends on luck. If the father is type A, and he happens to donate that antigen, and the mother happens to donate the B antigen in her body, then voila! Type AB. If the father is type B, and he happens to donate that antigen, and the mother happens to donate the A antigen in her body, then voila! Type AB. If the father is type AB, and he donates either. The child can be type AB as long as the mother donates the opposite one. It's really all chance. If you are asking whether the mother will reject the blood type in the child, then of course not. They are the same blood type. Perfectly compatible.


If mother and father is A blood group can child be B positive?

If the mother is A, and the father is A, then the child will only have A antigens and will thus be blood type A. If father or mother are AB, then the child can end up with AB, A, or B blood type. http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Blood_type


How can you get your child's fathers blood type without him knowing?

What blood type is mother if Father is B positive and baby is AB positive?

Can an AB mother and an O father have an O child?

No. An AB father does not have an O allele and can only pass on an A or B allele to his child. So the child will either be type A or type B, but not O.

Can a mother has A positive blood type and a father has AB positive and the child has B positive?

Since both parents are Rh+, the child will also be Rh+.If the Mother is A0+ and Father is AB+, the child will be: AA+ AB+ AO+ or BO+ So yes this does produce a B+ child.If the Mother is AA+ and the Father is AB+, the child will be AB+ or AA+ neither of these is B+ so this doesn't produce a B+ child.


Can child have o type blood from ab mother and o father?

No. The child will have either type A or type B blood.
