The parents have normal sex chromosome genotypes, XX and XY. The chromosomal error that causes Klinefelter's syndrome occurs during the formation of either of the parent's gametes during meiosis.

Is it possible for two A-positive parents to have an O-negative child?

Yes, it is quite possible. It does require both parents to have AO(+-) genotypes, which is somewhat rare, however.


Is it possible for 2 parents with down syndrome to produce a child with no non-disjunction disorder please explain why?

Since Down Syndrome is not genetic and is a trisomy, dominant and recessive genes do not play a role and it is possible for two down syndrome parents to have a child without down syndrome.


Can an A plus and an A- parents have an O- child?

Yes. It would take too long to explain genotypes and phenotypes, just know that it is possible.


Is it possible for 2 parents with down syndrome to produce a child with no non-disjunction disorder please explain?

No, it is possible for 2 parents with down syndrome to produce a child with no non-disjunction disorder because of a gamete is produced with an extra copy of the chromosomes.


Mother o positive father o positive and child also o positive is possible or not?

Yes, it is possible. Parents who are O positive may have children who are O+ or O-, depending on the parents' genotypes.


Would parents pass down syndrome to their future children?

No. Parents who have a child with Down syndrome do not have an increased chance in having another child with Down syndrome. Everyone has the same chance of having a child with Down syndrome, 1%.


Can an b negative parent and a a positive parent have a o positive child?

Yes, it's possible but there are very slim chances. It depends heavily on the genotypes of both parents


Can an A negative parent and a B positive parent have a B negative child?

Yes, it's possible but there are very slim chances. It depends heavily on the genotypes of both parents


How can a child whose parents are not carriers get Marfan syndrome?

A child can develop Marfan syndrome even if their parents are not carriers due to a new mutation in the FBN1 gene, which is responsible for the condition. This spontaneous mutation can occur during the formation of the egg or sperm or shortly after fertilization, leading to the child exhibiting symptoms of Marfan syndrome despite having no family history of the disorder. Additionally, Marfan syndrome has a variable expressivity, meaning that not all carriers may show symptoms, making it possible for parents to be unaffected while still having a child with the condition.


How could two parents with blood types a and b have a child with o?

If the parents had the genotypes AO and BO, then they could have a child with Type O blood (there would be a 25% chance of this occurring).


If the parents are AO and BO genotypes for the ABO blood group their children could include what genotypes?

The children could have AO, BO, AB, or OO genotypes. Each child would inherit one A allele from the AO parent and one B allele from the BO parent, resulting in the possible combinations of AO, BO, AB, or OO genotypes.


Is there a way to avoid transferring Morquio's syndrome from parent to child?

There is no way to be absolutely positive that your child will not have Morquio's syndrome if both parents have the gene, but there are genetic screenings to help prevent having a child with Morquio's syndrome.
