Homozygous positive refers to an individual who has two identical alleles for a specific gene, both of which carry a dominant trait or mutation. In genetics, this term is often used in the context of certain tests, such as those for genetic disorders or traits, indicating that the individual has inherited the same allele from both parents. This can have implications for traits, diseases, or characteristics associated with that gene.

What happens when b positive woman marry a o negative man?

The blood type of any children would depend on the zygosity in the woman. (Both O and Rh negative are recessive, and will be homozygous in the man). If the woman is homozygous B, then the children will B. If the woman is heterozygous B, either O or B (with 50% chance of each). In the same way, if the woman is homozygous Rh positive, then the children will also be positive. If the woman is heterozygous, then children will be either positive or negative. In short, the possibilities for child blood types are either B or O, with Rh positive or negative.
