Although both individuals have type o, their parents didnt necessarly have o. Some generations behind might (most likely) have had A, so by genetics their offspring got A.
The offspring could have blood type A- or O- due to the possible combination of A and O alleles from the parents.
If both parents are type O, they will always produce type O offspring.
The blood of males is not passed to offspring. Instead, genetic material from the father, including DNA found in sperm, is combined with genetic material from the mother during fertilization to create offspring with a unique genetic makeup. Once the egg is fertilized, it develops into an embryo and ultimately a new individual with its own blood supply.
No, blood group is determined by the presence or absence of specific antigens on red blood cells, whereas genotype refers to the genetic makeup of an individual. Blood group is not solely determined by genotype, as multiple genes can influence blood type.
The offspring blood type with parents that have O and B blood types would come out with O positive. This is taught in biology. Based on the details of the question this initial answer is incorrect. Type O is not a dominant characteristic merely a common one. A person with type B blood could have a genotype of BO or BB so there are two potential answers to this question. The parent with O type blood can only have an OO genotype. If the parents are BB and OO then all offspring will be type B phenotypically and their genotype will be BO. If the parents are BO and OO then 50% of the offspring will have the BO genotype and 50% will have the OO genotype. Phenotypes will be B and O respectively. Since the question did not include any mention of the RH factor there is no way to determine that the offspring would be positive or negative. True codominance in blood types really only shows up with the AB genotype where the phenotype of the individual matches the genotype and the person has both A and B blood factors.
Yes, an individual with blood type B can produce an offspring with blood type A. The explanation for this is that a mother with the blood type A can have a child with a father who has a blood type of A or AB and produce a child with type A blood.
No, it is not possible for an individual with the AS blood group to produce offspring with the AA blood group. The AS blood group indicates that the individual carries one A allele and one S allele (which is associated with sickle cell trait). For an offspring to have the AA blood group, both parents must provide an A allele, which cannot occur if one parent has an S allele.
If the father is homozygous for the B blood group, giving him the BB blood genotype, and the mother's genotype is AB (the only genotype for the AB blood group), then their offspring could have either the AB or B blood groups. If the father is heterozygous for the B blood group, giving him the BO genotype, then their offspring could have the AB, A, or B blood groups. However, they could not produce an offspring with the O blood group.
The offspring of parents have half of the parents genes (as you already know) but the mixture will produce a totally unique individual. Some of the genes will be exactly the same between all of them such as blood type or eye color. Sometimes a mutation may have occurred which will produce a completely different expression of the genes.
Depending on their actual genotypes and which of those genes the offspring receive, their offspring might have AB, A, B, or O blood type. For the man to have a phenotype blood type A he might have either genotype AA or Ao. For the woman to have a phenotype blood type B she might have either genotype BB or Bo.
There are two possibilities.... either group 'O' - or group 'B'. Also, each group can be rhesus positive or negative - making a total of four combinations.
Without any further information about the blood types of the offspring's parents, you can say that the offspring of a parent with type A and parent of type B could have any blood type -- A, B, O, or AB.
We are looking for the possible blood types of a baby.Parental information:Mother type B -- can be BB or BO = contributes B or O geneFather type A -- can be AA or AO = cantributes A or O geneBaby receives one gene from each parent: Baby is type AB = Type ABBaby is type AO = Type ABaby is type BO = Type BBaby is type OO = Type OWhen the parents are Types A and B, it is a possibility that their children will have every available ABO phenotypic blood type.

Yes! You could produce a child with either A or B blood.
