Rhesus negative is one of the major two variants in blood typing (the other obviously being Rh positive). For example, people refer to themselves as "A+", "O-" or "AB-". There is nothing wrong with having it.
The Black Cochin Jewish population has a high percentage of Rh-negative blood but the Rh-negative blood type is uncommon in the Black population in general, which is exactly the same interesting phenomenon as with the Oriental Jews of Israel who have a high percentage of Rh-negative blood, where among the Chinese and Japanese, Rh-negative blood type it is almost nonexistent.
If both parents have the same Rh factor (positive or negative), there is no risk of Rh incompatibility that could affect future pregnancies. Rh factor only becomes a concern when the mother is Rh-negative and the father is Rh-positive, which can lead to Rh incompatibility in the fetus.
No, A negative blood refers to the absence of the A antigen on red blood cells, while Rhesus negative (Rh-) refers to the absence of the Rh antigen. A person can be A negative and Rh positive or A negative and Rh negative.
Rh negative blood is rare in the human population because it is a genetic trait that is not as common as Rh positive blood. The Rh factor is inherited from our parents, and the gene for Rh negative blood is less prevalent in the general population. This makes Rh negative blood less common compared to Rh positive blood.
We are looking for the possible Rh blood types of a baby.Parental information:Mother Rh pos -- can be (++) or (+-) = contributes (+) or (-) geneFather Rh pos -- can be (++) or (+-) = contributes (+) or (-) geneBaby receives one gene from each parent: Baby is Rh (++) = Rh posBaby is Rh (+-) = Rh posBaby is Rh (--) = Rh negTherefore, depending on the exact genetics of the parents, the baby may be Rh positive or negative.
no
yes

AB negative is a RH negative blood type.
You would give them A Rh Negative blood or you could also give them O Rh Negative as well. Group O is the universal donor so it can be given to anyone. If the patient is Rh Negative, they can only receive Rh Negative blood. If the patient was Rh positive, they can receive Rh positive or Rh negative.
It depends on the genotype of the Rh+ parent. If that person is heterozygous, then yes there is a 50% chance of an Rh- baby.Father's Group (negative)Mother's Group (positive heterozygous)Rh +Rh -Rh -Rh +, Rh -Rh -, Rh -Rh -Rh +, Rh -Rh - Rh -http://www.bloodbook.com/inherited.htmlIf the positive parent is homozygous, the baby will be positive:Father's Group (negative)Mother's Group (positive homozygous)Rh +Rh +Rh -Rh +, Rh -Rh +, Rh -Rh -Rh +, Rh -Rh + Rh -
Yes, for a child to be Rh negative, both parents must carry at least one Rh negative allele. If both parents are Rh positive, they can still have an Rh negative child if both are carriers of the Rh negative allele.
Yes. The mother would have to have a heterozygous Rh genotype, so that she could pass on an Rh negative allele to her offspring.
Each person carries two bits of rh imformation, called alleles, and each can be positive or negative. A person is rh+ if they have at least one positive allele. Only if both their alleles are negative are they considered as rh-. When two parents have a baby, they each pass one allele on. So if both parent has one positive and one negative allele, and both passed on their negative allele to their baby, then the baby would be rh negative. The chances of two rh positive parents having a rh negative baby are about 18%.
No, A negative blood refers to the absence of the A antigen on red blood cells, while Rhesus negative (Rh-) refers to the absence of the Rh antigen. A person can be A negative and Rh positive or A negative and Rh negative.
An Rh negative man can marry an Rh positive woman. There is no reason this cannot happen.
