Father
Make a punnet square with the mother above, her genotype would be: X^B X^b, and the father to the left whose genotype is X^b Y.The probability of having a colorblind CHILD is 50%. The probability of them having a SON is 50%. Since we are asked what the probability of their SON being colorblind, it is 50% as well. The reason is because the chance of having a colorblind son, among sons only, (according to the punnet square) is 50%.
The mothers genotype is either OO++ or OO+-. If it is the former, then the child cannot be B-, so the mother has to be OO+-. The father is able to be either BB++, BB+-, BO++, or BO+-. If he is BB++ or BO++, then he cannot father a child to be B- by a OO+- mother. If he is either BB+- or BO+-, then it is entirely possible for he and an OO+- mother to have a child with phenotype B-. If the father is BB+- the probability is 25%. If he is BO+-, then the probability is 6.25%.
mother could be either B or AB and she could also be Negative or Positive.
Yes, as long as the mother has B in her blood type (either B or AB), the father can have O.
Yes, it is possible. The geneotype of the mother would be either BB or BO and for the father would be OO. If you cross the father's geneotype and either of the mother's then at least two of the four outcomes will be for B blood type. As for the - and +, positive is dominant over negative. The father could be + - or + + and the mother would be - -. Either combination would result in at least two positives. Therefore, it is possible for the mother to be B-, the father to be O+ and the baby to be B+. I added the link to the website where I got my info from. I want to know if an rh b neg blood type mother and an O positive father can have an A positive baby?
If the father is O and the mother is A, the child can end up either A or O.If the father is O and the mother is AB, the child can end up either A or B.
Yes, this will depend on the father blood type, so for a child to be B-, the father could be either B or AB negative or positive.
they can only get either AB or B blood type children.

A blood type O child would be impossible from this match. An AB parent must give an A allele or a B allele, and both alleles are dominant. If mother is homozygous B (meaning both alleles are B's), and father is AB, child can be either B or AB. If mother is heteroygous B (meaning one B allele and one O allele), and father is AB, the child can be either A, B, or AB.

Yes. The mother would have to be either B or AB.
