To determine parental genotypes from the blood groups of their children, you first need to know the possible genotypes associated with each blood group (A, B, AB, and O). Each blood group is determined by the presence of alleles A, B, and O: A can be AA or AO, B can be BB or BO, AB is always AB, and O is OO. By analyzing the children's blood groups, you can infer potential combinations of parental genotypes that could produce those specific blood types, considering the inheritance patterns of the ABO blood group system. For example, if a child has blood type O, both parents must carry at least one O allele.
This cross AO X BO, would yield that genotype. This cross, AA X BO, would not yield BO. AO X BB would not do it either. So, I assume only AO ( and, from the info given, BO ) is possible for mom.
And Organism's genotype is the organism's specific combination of alleles in a any given gene.
Yes - AB Parent has genotype IA IB . If the parent with B blood has the genotype IBi, which is entirely possible, then there is a chance that the baby would be IAi, and would have type A blood. Plus/minus has to do with the RH factor in blood, so you can't tell from the information given whether the baby could be "plus". If one of the parents is RH+, the baby could be as well.
One parent must have contributed a T allele for the genotype to be Tt, and a Y allele for the genotype to be Y.
AB red cell donations can only be given to AB recipients. But whole blood donations are separated into different products and AB plasma can be given to other blood groups
It is a false statement that "phenotype determines genotype". In fact, it is the opposite. A genotype is the genetics or "instructions" that determine the phenotype. The phenotype is the actual appearance, ex: blue eyes, that is created by a given genotype.
Nope - O negative is the only group that can be safely given to the patient if their blood group is unknown.
Blood group O This blood type has neither 'A' or 'B' antigens in it and can be given safely to anyone (even if, for example, if they are A positive).
no it can not because just like water and a brick is different by solid and liquid that way positive and negative blood groups are different
A genotype is a group of genes that influence a given trait, whereas a phenotype in this case would be that trait. An example of a sentence using the word "genotype" is "The different genes you inherit from your parents make up the genotype that determines your eye color. "
A heterozygous genotype has two different alleles for a given gene, one inherited from each parent. For example, in the genotype Aa, the individual has one dominant allele (A) and one recessive allele (a) for that gene.
