Laboratory Testing

The blood type will depend on the other parent.

but the Rh factor will be + no matter what is it for the other parent.

Yes, it is possible for an A+ father and a B- mother to have an O child biologically. Blood type inheritance follows specific patterns, and parental blood types do not directly determine the child's blood type. The child's blood type will depend on the combination of genes received from the parents.

The one gene one polypeptide hypothesis posits that each gene in our DNA encodes for a specific polypeptide or protein. Each protein plays a role in determining the traits or characteristics of an organism. This hypothesis helps in understanding how genetic information is transferred from DNA to proteins, which are key players in determining an organism's phenotype.

White blood cells, or leukocytes, are an essential part of the immune system that help fight off infections and diseases. They are produced in the bone marrow and are divided into several types with different functions, such as neutrophils, lymphocytes, monocytes, eosinophils, and basophils. These cells play a crucial role in detecting and combating foreign invaders in the body to maintain overall health and well-being.

Hematocrit test measures the percentage by volume of packed red blood cells in a whole blood sample. It is used to evaluate the concentration of red blood cells in the blood and can help diagnose conditions such as anemia or dehydration.

Yes, it is possible for a child to have blood type A if one parent is type O and the other is type A. Blood type is determined by the combination of genes inherited from both parents. In this case, the child most likely inherited the A gene from the mother and the O gene from the father.

If the mother is type A or AB (either positive or negative), they could be father and son. Depending on the mother's blood type, an O- father could have a child who is: A+, A-, B+, B-, O+, or O-.

No. Blood type is determined by a couple of things. The first are the antigens present on the red blood cells. This is where you get A, B, and AB blood types. If you lack either A or B antigens, you have an O blood type. The +/- refers only to the Rhesus factor D, or RhD. It does not refer to other rhesus factors that are not considered in blood type. With this factor, you either have it on your blood cells (+) or you do not (-). It is impossible to have a positive blood type and not have rhesus factor D because that would be a complete contradiction to the naming system.

O positive blood can be transfused to any person with a positive Rh factor, making it a universal donor for Rh-positive individuals. However, it is not universal for all blood types because some individuals may have antibodies to other blood group antigens present in O positive blood.

The blood type AB signifies that you are a universal recipient. This is a good thing especially should you find yourself in a car accident or some other tragedy happen, you can receive blood from types A-, A+, B-, B+, O-, O+, and of course AB. However, this also means that you can only give blood to another person who has the blood type AB.

The child could have blood type O positive or A positive. The ABO blood type system is inherited independently from the Rh factor, so the child could inherit the O gene from one parent and the A gene from the other.

Well for starters we would have to see what RH group you are in you see AB+ can receive blood from people that are A+ A- B+ B- O+ O- AB+ AB- but can only give to people that are AB+.If you are AB- you can receive from blood types A- B- O- and AB- but you can give to people that are AB+ and AB-.

Yes, it is possible for a father with O negative blood type to have a child with O negative blood type. In genetics, the child inherits one blood type allele from each parent, so it is possible for the child to receive an O allele from both parents, resulting in an O negative blood type.

One of the parents must be A or AB, and one must be positive.

Yes an AA mother can marry an AA father, when they give birth, it wil result to an AA children

I believe you meant "testimonial." A testimonial is a written or spoken statement that praises someone's character, skills, or achievements. It is often used to endorse a product, service, or person based on personal experience.

Yes. Type O blood requires that you have two recessive genes, one from each parent. Each of your parents can carry one of these and have a different type of blood. In this case, there is a one in four chances of the child having type O blood.

Blood groups are validated through blood typing tests, which involve mixing the blood sample with antibodies that target specific blood group antigens. The presence or absence of agglutination (clumping) indicates the blood group. This process is crucial for ensuring compatibility in blood transfusions and organ transplants.

There are basically three genes involved in the ABO blood typing: A, B, and O. The genes for A and B will always be expressed if they are present, but O is recessive, so in order for someone to have type O blood, the only two genes they can have is O (one from mom and one from dad).

It is biologically impossible for your parents to both have type O blood and you have type A blood. I wish I could tell you otherwise but I cannot. I suggest you have a heart to heart with your parents if they have never mentioned adoption or the like.

Now, To the poster that said that he has O neg but his parents are not type O, that is not really surprising. All this means is that your parents both have at least one gene for type O blood and you happened to get the two recessive O genes (this is a 1 out of 4 possibility...so if you have siblings, they have a higher likelihood of not having type O blood).

I'm type AB, one sister is type O, and the other sister is type B. Because of this, I know that my mother's genotype (the genes involved in causing her blood type) is AO (she has type A blood) and my father's genotype is BO (he has type B blood). Because of this match up, it is a rare situation where their offspring had a 25% chance of being A, B, AB, or O. As it stands, they had 3 kids and 3 different blood types.

Yes, O positive can donate red blood cells to AB negative. O positive is a universal donor for red blood cells, meaning it can be transfused to individuals with any blood type. However, O positive donors are not universal plasma donors for AB negative recipients.

No, it is not possible for a child to have B negative blood type if one parent is O positive and the other is A positive. Blood type inheritance follows specific rules, and in this case, the child would inherit either O or A positive blood type.

Yes. If they boiled the water and filtered it in order to remove the salt content, they could survive on it, but salt water straight from the sea dehydrates you rather quickly, due to the high salt content.
