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.

When hybrids for a certain characteristic are crossed Aa x Aa the recessive genotype AA may appear in some of the offspring because of what?

Probability is the term for the chance that any specific genotype will occur in the offspring from the mating of parents. Typically the capital letter A (in this example) represents the dominant allele as opposed to the recessive allele. The probability of the possible genotypes in a monohybrid cross is 1AA:2Aa:1aa. The probability of AA is .25 or 25%.


What would mating between a true breeding purple flowered pea plant and a true breeding white flowered pea plant produce?

Make a Punnet Square:White HETEROZYGOUS---WwRed HOMOZYGOUS--ww (this one is recessive because the white characteristic dominated in the heterozygous type)So:W ww Ww www Ww wwThese four are the potential types of the offspring, they will either be HETEROZYGOUS WHITE or HOMOZYGOUS RED, no homozygous white


Advantage of asexual reproduction?

It allows the two life forms that are mating to have offspring that looks like it. Thus the parents will have a baby that looks simliar to them. Most animals have asexual reproduction and this can allow children to be identified more easily.


What factors support evolution-?

As we currently understand it, evolution happens if: - There are populations of organisms reproducing with variation - Those variations are inherited by offspring - More offspring is produced than can comfortably subsist in the habitat - Offspring therefore compete with one another for resources and mating opportunities - Variant inherited traits affect their ability to compete.


What is one potential negative consequence of nonrandom mating based on geographic proximity?

Matings of related individuals can amplify certain traits and can cause result in offspring with disorders caused by recessive genes.

What's mean by breeding?

Breeding refers to the process of mating animals or plants to produce offspring with desired traits. This can be done for various purposes such as improving genetic characteristics, developing new breeds, or creating specific attributes in the offspring.
