Human ABO blood type is controlled by the i allele What is the probabiliy og having three offspribg sitg type o
Added by Kathy W.
Step 1
The A and B alleles are dominant, while the i allele is recessive. An individual with the ii genotype will have blood type O. Show more…

In humans, the three alleles IA, IB, and i constitute a multiple allelic series that determines the ABO blood group system. A woman of blood group AB has children with a man of blood group A whose father was of group O. What is the probability that one child will be blood group B and the other child will be blood group O?

Blood Type Inheritance Problems Blood type in humans is controlled by multiple alleles: Type O is recessive (ii) to Type A (IAIA or IAi), Type B (IBIB or IBi), and Type AB (IAIB). If a woman is homozygous for Type A blood and her husband is Type O, what is the probability that their offspring would have any one of the 4 possible blood types? If a woman is heterozygous for Type A and her husband is Type O, what is the probability that their offspring would have any one of the possible blood types? If a man and his wife are both heterozygous for Type A, what is the probability of blood types that their offspring would have?

In humans, the ABO blood type is determined mainly by three alleles of one gene, defined by the following allelic series: IA = IB > i. (IA is codominant to IB, and i/i results in blood type O). Please give the genotypes of parents who can potentially produce children of any of the four blood types.
