There's not enough information to give the probable blood groups since no blood group was given for the male. However, an rh negative male and an rh positive female could produce either an rh negative baby or an rh positive baby. The male is definitely homozygous recessive for rh factor, but the female could be homozygous dominant for rh factor, in which case the baby would be heterozygous for rh factor and it would be rh positive. However, if the female is heterozygous for rh factor, there is a 50% chance the baby would be rh positive (heterozygous) and a 50% change the baby would be rh negative (homozygous recessive).
absolutely. as long as one of the parents is positive, the child can be positive. and if one parent is A the other B, the child can be A, B, AB or O depending on the parents' other alleles. so the child can definitely be A or B positive, but also A negative, B negative, AB negative, AB positive, O positive or O negative.
Yes, she can. As far as blood type goes, if one parent is O and the other parent is B, the child can be either O or B. For Rh factor (i.e. negative or positive), if at least one parent is positive, then the child can be either negative or positive. If both parents are negative, then the child will be negative. So, it is perfectly plausible that it is his child.
A/O, B/O, or O/O any combination. Each parent contributes one gene, A and B are dominant, so any combination that could result in O/O would result in a child with O blood. The Rh factor is similar. Rh positive is dominant, so the child would have to inherit 2 negative genes to be Rh negative. Each parent contributes 1 of the 2 he/she carries. Almost any blood type can result in a child with Rh + blood. +/+ or +/-. The child would have to inherit the - gene from BOTH parents (they would both have to be +/- or -/-) in order to be Rh negative. If both parents are Rh-, the child would be Rh-, otherwise it is hard to predict. Even if both parents are Rh+, it is possible for the child to be negative if both carry the recessive negative gene.
No. In order for someone to have AB blood, they must inherit the A from one parent and the B from the other. Therefore a parent with O blood could only have A, B or O children (depending on the blood type of the other parent).
If both parents are B- they can only have children who are B- and O-. One would have to be positive in order to have a child with positive blood.
No. O is recessive. The parents would have to have A and B phenotypes in order for their child to have AB- blood.
-6 Yes the answer would be -6. But in order to get that answer you must know this: positive divided by a positive = positive positive divided by a negative = a negative negative divided by a positive = a negative negative divided by a negative = positive (also note: it's the same formula for multiplying)

Of course, you got your blood group from one of your parents or one of your grandparents.
A pooled blood product is a collection of multiple donated blood samples in order to test 10 samples at a time to see whether the blood tests positive or negative for certain diseases. If negative, then the cost of testing the other 9 samples has been saved!

No. Either the mother or the father (or both) must have type A or AB blood in order for the child to inherit type A blood. Independently of their ABO blood type, either or both parents must also be Rh positive for the child to be Rh positive. In the case given, the baby could be Rh positive since the mother is Rh positive but it could not be type A since neither parent has type A or AB blood.

O negative is the universal donor. ABO blood typing refers to the presence of A or B antigen on the red blood cell. O blood does not carry either antigen, so does not elicit an antibody response. The negative and positive refer to rh factor, which is another common antigen. In order to be a "universal donor" the blood must lack A, B and rh antigens. Similarly an AB positive person already has those antigens, so they would not be recognized as foreign protein requiring an antibody response. Therefore AB positive is a universal recipient.
Negative first, then zero and then the positive.
Hospital records will tell what blood type you and people in your family are. There are different blood types like O negative and O positive. It just varies.
