To determine the chance that their first child will have type O blood, we can use a Punnett square. The man, being heterozygous for blood type A (genotype AO), can pass on either the A or O allele, while the woman, being heterozygous for blood type B (genotype BO), can pass on either the B or O allele. The possible combinations for their child are AO, BO, AB, and OO. Therefore, there is a 25% chance that their first child will have type O blood (genotype OO).

A man heterozygous for blood type A marries a woman heterozygous for blood type B The chance that their first child will have type O blood?

There is a 25% chance that their first child will have type O blood if both parents are heterozygous for blood type A and B. This is because the child could inherit an O gene from each parent, resulting in blood type O.


You are A your wife is O- what will the child be?

Your child can be anything. It doesn't really matter what the parents are. Anything that runs through the family your child can be. The chances of being an O are very small but it is still possible. It depends on whether or not you are homozygous or heterozygous A. All O blood is genetically homozygous. If you are blood type AO then there is a 50% chance of Homozygous O (OO) and 50% chance of heterozygous A (AO). If you are Blood type AA then there is a 100% chance of heterozygous A (AO)


How does a A blood type mother AND a father have a -0 blood type child?

The mother and father both have heterozygous alleles for the blood group A. The blood group A can have the alleles AA or AO, when both parents are AO, there is a one in four chance that the child will have blood group O as this blood group is recessive.


Can a a blood group father produce an o type child?

An A blood group father can have an O type child. If he does, then he is heterozygous for type A.


A child is born with type AB blood what blood must the parents have?

The most likely blood type for the child is A positive - but A negative, O positive and O negative are also possible depending on the genotypes of the parents. If both parents are heterozygous AO, then the child could have either A or O type blood. If either parent is homozygous, AA, then the child must have blood type A. If the parent with positive blood is heterozygous, Dd (+-), then the child could have either positive or negative type blood. If they are homozygous, DD (++), then the child must have positive type blood.


If heterozygous type a father is married to a heterozygous type b mother?

Assuming a and b are referring to blood types... The father will have the genotype Ao The mother will have the genotype Bo Their offspring will be 1AB:1Bo:1Ao:1oo. This means the child has an equal chance (1/4) of being blood type A, B, AB and O.


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.


Can a child be O negative is mother is A negative and father is O positive?

Yes, if the father is heterozygous for blood group A and heterozygous for positive rh factor.


What will be the blood group of ababy when father has b plus blood group and mother has o plus blood group?

The child can be A, B or AB. The only group the child shouldn't be is O. You receive one allele from each parent. Each group actually has two places. Therefore the B is actually BO or BB. If child is A, this means the mother's group is BO. Now mix and match. Mother gives B Father gives B Child is B Mother O Father B Child B Mother O Father A Child A Mother B Father A Child AB Mother B Father B Child B The Rh factor is similar but not so easily determined. While it also has two places, the + can hold a - for it's second placement +- For instance, my mother is AB Neg but all of her children are Pos. This means her Rh factor must be -+. Hope this helps.


If a woman heterozygous for hair curl marries a man with straight hair and they have four children?

it depends on the husbands genotype, if it is a recessive gene (bb) then there is a 50 50 chance of either straight or curly hair. if the husbands straight hair is a heterozygous gene, then there is a 70% chance for either straight or curly hair.


If a half-blood marries a pure-blood what blood will their child be?

The child of a half-blood and a pure-blood would be considered a half-blood. In the wizarding world, blood status is often determined by the least pure parent.


What are the chances of a woman with blood type b and a man with blood type ab having a child with type 0?

There is no chance that this baby would have the blood type O. In order for someone to have the blood type O, the genotype must be IoIo. That means that each parent would have to have an O allele in their genotype. In this case only the mother has the possibility of having an O allele. Genotypes of blood type A: IbIb, IbIo Genotype of blood type AB: IaIb Genotype of blood type O: IoIo here is a punit square to show you heterozygous mommy heterozygous daddy IbIo IaIb Ib Io Ib IbIb IbIo Ia IaIb IbIo This child would have 75% chance of having the blood type B and 25% chance of being type AB
