We are looking for the possible blood types of a PARENT.
Available information:
HOWEVER: There is more to ABO blood typing that just the ABO gene.
There is also an inhibitory gene that will change any genotype into the phenotype O.
Therefore a person with genetically AB blood can be tested as having Type O.
If the baby's inhibitory gene has been turned "on", then no matter what ABO genes he receives from his parents, he will test out as a Type O.
Depends on what the mother's blood type is, but they could be A, B, or AB.
They can't be o because A and B are both dominant.
Either A or AB or B;
depending on which genes get transmitted.
A- 25%
b- 25%
AB- 50%
"No, if each parent has AB then the child can be A, B or AB but not O." Not exactly. Yes, it IS possible for a child with Blood type O to have a parent with the AB Blood type although it is extremely rare. There are different reasons for this. One is the Bombay blood group. There is also Chimera, or 'vanishing twin'. In certain Asian groups, some of these folks have a rare version of the ABO blood type gene called cis-AB. People with this gene version have an AB blood type but can easily have an O child. I am an O blood type child of an AB blood type parent, although we are not of Asian/European descent. I also have other siblings who are Blood type O so I know it is possible.
A+ Neither parent can have type O blood
Co-dominance happens when two genotypes are expressed at the same time. For example, one parent can have blood type A and one parent can have blood type B and together produce a child with blood type AB. If two parents have the blood type AB, the child has a chance of being mentally ill.
If the parent's blood type is A and B, respectively, the possible blood type of their child are A, AB, B and O.
NO. Not at all. Each parent has an A or a B to contribute to the child. Therefore, the only possibilities for the child are: An A from each parent (making it an A) A B from each parent (making it a B) and An A from one, and a B from the other, (making it an AB). This a super-simple answer. For more detail on ABO blood grouping, type in ABO on wiki. NO. Not at all. Each parent has an A or a B to contribute to the child.

the child takes the A gene from one parent and B from the other. And the both of parent are supposed to be AB blood type, or one A blood type and the other B.
No.
A B+ parent can have a child with A+ blood. The other parent must be type A or type AB for this to occur.

No - children do not have to have the same blood type as the parents. For example, if one parent has blood type A and the other has blood type AB, the child might have A, B or AB blood types. (For the child to have B, the parent with blood type A would need to be heterozygous, Ao)
The child can have the same blood type. It is possible if the child obtains the allele IA from one parent and IB from the other. So if a person with blood type AB provides IA or IB and the other parent provides the other allele, then the child may have the same blood type i.e. AB positive.
Either A or B; AB and O are impossible.

No. B type can only have B, O, and AB. A child with A blood would have to have at least one parent be A or AB.
yes
A+ Neither parent can have type O blood
Yes. A mother with blood type A (AO) and a father with blood type B (BO) can have a child with blood type O (OO), one O from each parent. An AB parent and a A (AO) parent can have an B child (BO), an AB and a B (BO) can have an A (AO). An AB parent can never have an O child because it requires two recessive genes and an AB parent cannot donate a recessive O.
