A woman who has blood type A positive has a daughter who is type O positive and a son who is type B negative. Rh positive is a trait that shows simple dominance over Rh negative and is designated by the alleles R and r, respectively. A third gene for the MN blood group has codominant alleles M and N. If both children are of blood type M in addition to their ABO blood type, list all of the possible parental phenotypes for the ABO, MN and Rh traits.
Several genes in humans in addition to the ABO gene(I) give rise to recognizable antigens on the surface ofred blood cells. The MN and Rh genes are two examples. The Rh locus can contain either a positive or anegative allele, with positive being dominant to negative. M and N are codominant alleles of the MN gene.The following chart shows several mothers and theirchildren. For each mother-child pair, choose the fatherof the child from among the males in the right column, assuming one child per male.Mother Child Malesa. O M Rh(pos) B MN Rh(neg) O M Rh(neg)b. B MN Rh(neg) O N Rh(neg) A M Rh(pos)c. O M Rh(pos) A M Rh(neg) O MN Rh(pos)d. AB N Rh(neg) B MN Rh(neg) B MN Rh(pos)
A woman homozygous for normal height, with freckles, almond-shaped eyes, small nose, and Type A blood, has a Type O mother with no freckles and a type AB father with round eyes. She is engaged to a man with achondroplasia, round eyes and medium sized nose. Unlike his father, hismother is of normal height. Both his parents have Type O blood but nobody from both sides of his family has or had freckles. a. Write the COMPLETE genotypes of the man and the woman. Clearly indicate which genotype belongs to whom. b. Based on their genotypes, what is the probability that they will have: b.1 a child with Achondroplasia? b.2 a child of normal height? b.3 a child with type AB blood? b.4 a daughter with round eyes, freckles, and medium sized nose? b.5 a son with almond eyes, no freckles, and small nose?b.6 a daughter with same genotype as the woman? b.7 a son with same genotype as the man?
Rhesus factor is a protein found onlthe surface of the red blood cells. Having Rhesus factor (Rh+) is dominant over having none (Rh-). What cross could result to Rhesus factor incompatibility? Rh- mother x Rh+ father O Rh- father x Rhesus+ mother O Rh- mother x Rh- father O Rh+ father x Rh+ mother
The mother of a family with 10 children has blood typeRh+. She also has a very rare condition (elliptocytosis,phenotype E) that causes red blood cells to be oval rather than round in shape but that produces no adverseclinical effects. The father is Rh− (lacks the Rh+ antigen)and has normal red blood cells (phenotype e). The children are 1 Rh+ e, 4 Rh+ E, and 5 Rh− e. Information isavailable on the mother’s parents, who are Rh+ E andRh− e. One of the 10 children (who is Rh+ E) marriessomeone who is Rh+ e, and they have an Rh+ E child.a. Draw the pedigree of this whole family.b. Is the pedigree in agreement with the hypothesisthat the Rh+ allele is dominant and Rh− is recessive?c. What is the mechanism of transmission ofelliptocytosis?d. Could the genes governing the E and Rh phenotypesbe on the same chromosome? If so, estimate the mapdistance between them, and comment on your result

Classical hemophilia is a sex-linked disease caused by a recessive gene on the X chromosome. (Hemophilia refers to diseases that cause delays in blood clotting.) If a woman who is acarrierof classical hemophilia has children with a normal male, give the ratios of the possible offspring with respect to classical hemophilia. Be sure to state both the genotypes and the phenotypes of each offspring. For genotypes, use X for a normal X chromosome, Xh for an X chromosome with the hemophilia gene, and Y for a normal Y chromosome. For phenotypes, if the offspring is female, be sure to state if homozygous normal, a carrier, or has the disease. If the offspring is a male, be sure to state if normal or has the disease.
Duchenne muscular dystrophy is sex linked and usuallyaffects only males. Victims of the disease become progressively weaker, starting early in life.a. What is the probability that a woman whose brotherhas Duchenne’s disease will have an affected child?b. If your mother’s brother (your uncle) had Duchenne’sdisease, what is the probability that you have receivedthe allele?c. If your father’s brother had the disease, what is theprobability that you have received the allele?
Kara is B-positive and her father has A-negative blood. Kara marries Ryan, who is A-negative. Ryan’s father has O-positive blood.

A graduating nursing student wanted to know the different blood groups and how they can be inherited. She understood that multiple allele is the inheritance pattern for ABO blood type while complete dominance for Rh factor (Rh + is dominant over Rh -). Now she wanted to know what the probable blood types from the 3 systems on her future children are. Consider the nursing student has AB, Rh negative and her current husband has O, heterozygous Rh positive. 1. What is the probability of having a child with a blood type of type O? A. 25% B. 100% C. 75% D. 50% E. 0% 2. What is the probability of having a child with a blood type of type A Rh positive? A. 1/4 B. 3/8 C. 1/2 D. 3/4 E. 1/8 3. What is the probability of having a child with a blood type of type B Rh negative? A. 3/4 B. 1/8 C. 1/4 D. 1/2 E. 3/8 4. heterozygous Rh positive. What are the possible blood types of her children? A. A Rh+, A Rh-, B Rh+, B Rh-, O Rh+, O Rh- B. A Rh+, B…
In humans, the allele for normal blood clotting, H, is dominant to the allele for hemophilia, h. The trait is X-linked. A female hemophiliac has a child with a man who is not a hemophiliac. What is the probability that this couple's child is a hemophiliac and what is the child's gender? Your response must include a Punnett square with correct nomenclature.
In a paternity suit, a woman with type O blood claims that a man with type AB blood is the father of her type O baby. List the genetypes of the mom, man, and baby. Can the woman prove he is the father or can he is not? Why or why not? If the accused man was type A insyead of type AB, what would be his possible genotypes? Could the woman prove he is the father? Can the man prove he is not the father? Why or why not?
