Question #164715

predict the blood groups of the offsprings when father A,and mother B are heterozygous


Expert's answer

A parent with blood group A can have two possible genotype IA IO simarly parent with blood group B can have two possible genotypes--IB IB and IOIO


if both the parents are homozygous(IAIA* IBIB ) all of their children will have AB blood grou


But if father is homozygous (IAIA) and mother is heterozygous(IBIO) the total different type of possible combination by 3 alleles (IA,IB and IO) will be (IA, IB and IBIO)


Hence the predicted blood group of offsprings will be AB or B
