Type O blood is names such because it lacks the A and B antigens found in A, B, and AB type blood. O type blood can be given to people with all other types of blood. However, People with O type blood can only be given O type blood.
You could be blood type B or O, as you inherit one blood type allele from each parent. If you inherit a B allele from your mother and an O allele from your father, you would be blood type B. If you inherit an O allele from both parents, you would be blood type O.
no, blood type AB has gennotype IA,IB while blood type o has the genotype II. Each of his parents passed on an allele,So neither could have blood type AB
Yes - blood type O or B are the only possibilities. Each parent donates one allele to the child. The parent with blood type O must donate an O. The parent with blood type be will donate either a B or an O - they can only donate an O if they are heterozygous, BO.
The four blood types are Type A, Type B,Type AB,and Type O. Type O is the most common with 46% of population with that blood type, followed by Type A with 39%.
Yes. Regarding blood type, each person has two blood group genes--one from each parent. The blood types sort like this: For blood type O: O/O For blood type A: either A/A or A/O For blood type B: either B/B or B/O For blood type AB: A/B Thus two parents who are A/O (and are therefore blood group A) can have a child who is O/O if they both give the O gene, resulting in blood group O. Regarding Rh type, each parent also give one gene, either Rh - or Rh +. An Rh + person can be either +/+ or +/-: and Rh - person is -/-. To summarize: a mother who is A/O and Rh +/- (and thus A positive) and a father who is A/O and Rh -/- (and thus A negative) can have a child who is O/O and Rh +/- (and thus O positive).
We are looking for the possible blood types of a baby.Parental information:Mother type O --can only be OO = contributes O geneFather type A --can be AA or AO = contributes A or O geneBaby receives one gene from each parent: Baby is type AO = Type ABaby is type OO = Type OYES, the baby will have either Type A or O blood.
We are looking Type O blood with parents of different blood types. Parental information:Mother type A -- can be AA or AO therefore can contribute A or OFather type B -- can be BB or BO therefore can contribute B or OBaby receives one gene from each parent: Baby is type BOBaby is type AOBaby is type ABBaby is type OOThe one parental blood type that a Type O baby generally cannot have is a type AB parent, since Type O requires the contribution of O from each parent.
Yes, it is possible for a mother with AB blood and a father with O blood to have a child with O blood type. This is because the parents can each pass on an O allele, resulting in a child with O blood type.
There is no problem for two parents having the same blood type to get married, it's just because both of them have the ( O blood type ) all the children will be ( O type ). The characteristics of ( O type ) in the field of blood transfusion, that the person with this type can receive blood from others only if it is (O), and they can donate blood to any type. in summery : O type is a general donor, but a limited receiver for it self.
No. Blood type O is recessive; you need an O gene from each parent. B can either be BB or BO but AB is either AB or BA, and cannot pass on an O gene.
As O is a recessive allele, each parent must be OO, so the offspring would receive an O allele from each parent, meaning they would also be OO, and would test as O.
No blood type is inherently "stronger" than another. Each blood type has its own unique characteristics and may provide certain advantages or disadvantages in terms of health and compatibility for blood transfusions. It ultimately depends on the individual's specific situation and needs.
