The Genotypes and Phenotypes of Blood Groups The table below shows the blood types of mothers and children. Complete the table by filling in all the possible genotypes for the mother and child. For each given mother and child, list any genotypes that can be eliminated as possibilities for the father. Mother Blood Type Mother Possible Genotypes Child Child Possible Blood Type Genotypes Impossible Genotypes for A $I^A I^A$ or $I^A i$ O ii only $I^A I^B$, $I^A I^A$, $I^B I^B$ B O AB A AB AB AB B A B

A mother has blood type A and genotype AO. A father has blood type B and genotype BO. What blood phenotypes are possible for the offspring? (select answer that has all phenotypes) a) A, B, AB b) A, B, O c) A, AB, B, O d) AB, O e) AB

Infer the unknown phenotypes of individuals on the basis of the known phenotypes of their family members. Solve genetic problems related to multiple alleles. Procedure: Given the blood types of the two family members, determine the possible blood type of the remaining member. Mother's Blood Type Father's Blood Type Child's Blood Type Determine child's blood type if a mother has type A (AA) blood and the father has type B (BB) blood. Show your solution using a Punnett square. Write the genotypic and phenotypic ratio of the offspring.

An individual who has A blood produces offspring with an individual who has B blood. They produce a child who has A blood. What are the possible genotypes for the parents and their child? (1 point) The child's genotype is: AA The first parent's possible genotypes is/are: AB or A0 The second parent's possible genotypes is/are: BB The child's genotype is: A0 The first parent's possible genotypes is/are: AA or AB The second parent's possible genotypes is/are: B0 The child's genotype is: AA The first parent's possible genotypes is/are: AB or A0 The second parent's possible genotypes is/are: B0 The child's genotype is: A0 The first parent's possible genotypes is/are: AA or A0 The second parent's possible genotypes is/are: B0
