We are looking for the possible blood types of a baby.

Parental information:

  • Mother type A -- can be AA or AO = contributes A or O gene
  • Father type A -- can be AA or AO = contributes A or O gene
Baby receives one gene from each parent:
  • Baby is type AA = Type A
  • Baby is type AO = Type A
  • Baby is type OO = Type O
Since neither parent can contribute the B gene, it is impossible for this pairing to produce an AB child.

If you have o negative blood do your parents have o blood too?

They could, but they don't need to. Both of your parents must have at least one O allele, meaning neither can have type AB blood. They must be either BO, AO or OO to produce a child with type O blood.


Is there a posibility to have a child that is blood type -A A couple who are blood type B and blood type O?

No. It is not possible for a child to have A if the parents are O blood type. If both parents have type O blood, then their children will also have type O blood. However, two parents with type A or type B blood (both the same or one of each) can sometimes have a child with type O blood. That is because the gene for type O blood is recessive. But they must carry the O type. However, two parents with type AB blood can have a child with type A, type B, or type AB blood, but cannot have a child with type O blood.


Can 0 positive parents born an A positive child?

With genetic mutations during replication, anything is possible. But, in general two O negative parents could only have a child that is O negative. Conversely, two O positive parents could have a child that is either O negative or O positive.


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 possible blood types of a child if a woman with Type A- blood marries a man with B?

It depends on the genotype of the parents: If they are AO and BO the child could be all of the 4 ABO-Bloodtypes: AO (= bloodtype A) BO (= bloodtype B) AB (= bloodtype AB) OO (= bloodtype O) If they are AA and BB the child could only be bloodtype AB If they are AO and BB the Child could be AB, or B (BO) If they are AA and BO the child could be AB or A (AO) In short, when the genotype is not given, the child can have any of the ABO-Bloodtypes

Could a mother with type A blood and a father with type B blood produce a child with type B blood?

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


If a woman with O blood has a child with a man with B blood could the child be A blood?

No, the child has to have one of the parents blood type.


If both parents have A blood type can they have a child with o blood type?

Yes. Both parents could be heterozygous, that is AO, and pass on the O to their child.


How could two parents with blood types a and b have a child with o?

If the parents had the genotypes AO and BO, then they could have a child with Type O blood (there would be a 25% chance of this occurring).


If you have o negative blood do your parents have o blood too?

They could, but they don't need to. Both of your parents must have at least one O allele, meaning neither can have type AB blood. They must be either BO, AO or OO to produce a child with type O blood.


Can a A negative and B negative parental blood types produce a A positive child?

No. They could have an A- child, but not A+.


Could a child with type B blood have parents that are both type A blood?

Only if it was adopted...the only options for that child's blood type would be A or O if the biological parents are both Type A.


Could a female with B type and a man with AB type blood produce an offspring with O type blood?

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.


If both parents have 0 positive blood types could child have type A?

No.


Does a child blood group have to match with parents blood group?

no. the genes are mixed together could make your child categorises in a different blood group than you. :)


Could a child from parents with type o blood and type ab have type o blood?

The parent with type O blood will produce gamets of IOIO and other parent with type ab blood will produce the gamets of IAIB so after mating the probability of progeny is IAIO:IBIO = 1:1 but no IOIO so in above case the probabitly of child with o blood group is zero or nill.
