How can a child's blood type be A positive if mom is O positive and dad is AB negative?

If one parent is O positive and the other is AB negative, the child could inherit the A allele from the O positive parent and the Rh factor from the AB negative parent, resulting in the child being A positive. Each parent passes on one allele for blood type and one allele for Rh factor, so different combinations are possible.


Is it more likely for a child to have blue eyes if the mom has brown eyes and the dad has blue?

Yes, it is possible for a child to have blue eyes if the mom has brown eyes and the dad has blue eyes. The inheritance of eye color is a complex trait influenced by multiple genes. Since both parents carry the blue eye gene, it is possible for their child to inherit this trait.


Can black haired mom and blonddad have blond child?

Well, actually yes it also depends in bouth mom and dad geneticts if the mother Or father of the mom had blond hair and dad has blond hair, well the kid has more Chanses to be blond but if the mother or father of dad have black hair and mom have black hair well the kid have more Chanses of having black hair...or the kid can be born blond and when he grow up the hair can turn black... So it all depends but yes it can happend.


What if mom and dad both 0 positive - and child b negative?

It is possible for a child to have a blood type that is different from either parent if both parents are carriers of a different blood type allele. In this case, the child could inherit the O negative blood type if both parents are carriers of the O negative allele.


What is mom's genotype if her blood type is phenotype A and Dad's phenotype is B and her child's genotype is BO?

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.
