Yes, but this is not the main cause for all cases. Others can be genetic or birth defects during pregnancy.
To have a B type child with an AB father, the mother must have either B or O blood type. If the mother has B blood type, she can pass on either a B or O allele, while the AB father can pass on either an A or B allele. If the mother has O blood type, she can only pass on an O allele, which would result in a B type child when combined with the B allele from the AB father.
There are two main variations of clubfoot: bilateral and unilateral. Bilateral clubfoot affects both feet and is more common, accounting for about 50% of cases. Unilateral clubfoot affects only one foot. Additionally, there can be variations in the severity of the condition, ranging from mild to severe.
The condition known as clubfoot has been documented since ancient times. However, it was Dr. Ignacio Ponseti who developed the effective Ponseti method for treating clubfoot in the 1940s, revolutionizing its management.
No. If it is a mother, that infers that the organism is female. The feature that determines gender is the 23rd set of chromosomes. A female can only result if the pair is XX (XY results in a male). Therefore, a mother cannot pass on a Y chromosome to her child. If you are wondering whether by cause of a genetic mutation the mother happens to have a Y chromosome, then she would not be a mother, as she would be infertile.
Yes, it is possible for a child to have a different blood type than their father. A child inherits one blood type allele from each parent, so if the child receives a B allele from their mother and an A allele from their father, they can have blood type B.
The Clubfoot was created in 1642.
No. An AB father does not have an O allele and can only pass on an A or B allele to his child. So the child will either be type A or type B, but not O.
From what I have read (and my own personal experience with clubfoot), I am fairly certain that "Yes, clubfoot can be considered a disability". Like most other orthopedic impairments, clubfoot ranges in severity from one person to the next.
True clubfoot is usually obvious at birth
True clubfoot is characterized by abnormal bone formation in the foot
Clubfoot can affect one foot or both
Clubfoot is a condition a person is born with, it does not develop during puberty.
There is a 50% chance that the baby will have Marfan. The father might pass on the gene that has the Marfan mutation, or he might pass on the gene that does not. Each child you have together has a 50% chance.
Yes. If both parents are heterozygous for the Rh factor, each could pass on a recessive Rh negative allele to the child. Since the father has the B blood group, it is possible for him to pass on his B allele to the child. So these two parents could have a B negative child.

Talipes, talipes varus, or talipes equinovarus is the medical term meaning clubfoot.
