We are looking for the possible blood types of a baby.
Parental information:
Blood type can be determined from parents by looking at their blood types and using the principles of genetics. A child's blood type is determined by the combination of blood type genes inherited from their parents. For example, if both parents have type A blood, their child could have either type A or type O blood. If one parent has type A blood and the other has type B blood, their child could have type A, type B, type AB, or type O 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.
Yes. Both parents could be heterozygous, that is AO, and pass on the O to their child.
No, the child has to have one of the parents blood type.
It's not possible for two O+ parents to have a child with A blood type. A child's blood type is determined by the combination of genes inherited from the parents, and in this case, the genetic combination would result in the child also having O+ blood type. A possible explanation could be an error in blood typing or paternity.
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).
No.
I assume the question is "Is it possible for two parents with type B blood to have a child with type O blood?" Yes they can, if both parents have BO genotype. The chance of the child having O blood is 25% in this case. Source: http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Blood_type
Yes this could happen if the geno-type of both parents is heterozygous, what i mean by that is to have this symbol for both parents : IAi X IAi so to have a child with type O, the possibility for that is 25%
If both parents had heterozygous blood-type genes, then the child could inherit the recessive O type from each parent. Suppose the mother had the genes for A and O, and the father had the genes for B and O. They would then have blood-types A and B respectively. Depending on which parts were passed to the child, any blood type would be possible.
If both parents have A positive blood, their child would most likely also have A positive blood. This is because the child inherits one blood type allele from each parent, and A positive is dominant, so it is highly probable for the child to have the same blood type as the parents.
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.
