Blood type is inherited through multiple alleles including a I B and I a child has type a blood if the father has type a B blood what are all the possible phenotypes of the mother
Added by Sebastian W.
Step 1
The child has type A blood, which means they inherited an A allele from one parent (in this case, the father) and another A allele or an O allele from the other parent. Since the A allele is dominant over O, we can assume that the mother has at least one A Show more…

If a mother is heterozygous for type A blood and the dad is heterozygous for type B blood, what are the potential blood types of the offspring?
