Which of the following blood types in progeny may be produced by a mating between a man with blood type AB and a woman with blood type O? Mark all that apply.
- Type A
- Type B
- Type AB
- Type O
The blood circulating through the circulatory system is responsible for the transport of oxygen and nutrients to the cells, and removal of carbon dioxide and toxic metabolic waste from the cells. Hence, the blood is responsible for providing proper nourishment and aerobic environment to the cells. Apart from this, blood is also responsible for carrying the various hormones secreted by the glands to their target organs, maintaining optimal body pH, fighting against pathogens as a part of humoral immunity, and maintenance of homeostasis.
There are two types of antigens present on the red blood cells circulating in the blood plasma: Antigen A and Antigen B. Based on the presence of these antigens, the human blood can be categorized into four groups: Blood group A, Blood group B, Blood group AB, and Blood group O. This grouping of blood based on antigen presence is known as ABO grouping. These blood groups can be further categorized as positive or negative based on the presence and absence of Rh antigen, respectively. Hence, in totality there are eight blood groups present: A+, B+, AB+, O+, O-, AB-, B-, A- .
Step by stepSolved in 2 steps
- The cross AaBb x AABB results in which of the following phenotypic ratios? 9:3:3:1 1:1:1:1 1:1 1:0arrow_forwardWe have crossed true-breeding flies today. Wild type to mutant. Their phenotypes were wt and vg se. (Let’s not worry about males and females for now, just assume both genes are autosomal, which is normal in a Mendelian experiment). The results of a cross are phenotypes. I will be asking you for numbers or a ratio of phenotype numbers you expect to see in the offspring from this cross. To answer this, you’ll need to start with the genotypes of parents, then write their gametes, then write the offspring genotypes, then get the phenotypes based on them. Predict the results of this cross: In case both mutations are recessive; In case both mutations are dominant; In case vestigial wings are recessive and the sepia eyes are dominant.arrow_forwardA male mouse that is heterozygous for a mutant Igf2 allele (Igf2/lgf2-) is crossed with a female who is homozygous for the wild-type lgf2 allele. What would be the expected outcome of this cross? Multiple Choice O O O O 1/2 the offspring would be normal; 1/2 would be dwarf All offspring would be normal because the paternal allele is expressed All offspring would be dwarf because the maternal allele is silenced All offspring would be dwarf because the paternal allele is silenced 3/4 of the offspring would be normal; 1/4 would be dwarf Aarrow_forward
- What percentage of the female offspring will have the dominant phenotype resulting from the following cross: XAXA with XaYarrow_forwardIn human pedigrees, an unknown sex is denoted by Circle Square Rhombus None of the abovearrow_forwardA man with blood type B and a woman with blood type O produce an offspring. What are the possible blood types for the offspring? A or O B or O AB, A, B, or O AB only O O Oarrow_forward
- The phenotypes of individuals that are homozygous dominant and heterozygous for a gene with two alleles, one dominant and one recessive, will be the same. True Falsearrow_forwardA couple with the following blood types: the man has type AB and the woman has type B, discover their child has type O blood. Is it possible that one of these ‘parents’ may not actually be the genetic parent of this child? If so, which one, and how do you know?arrow_forwardA tall, purple pea plant that is true-breeding is crossed with a short, white pea plant. What will the genotype(s) of their offspring be? Include a Punnett Square to justify your answer. BIU A, Paragraph + v ... Add a File Record Audio Record Videoarrow_forward
- Hemophilia, disease in which the blood lacks a clotting factor, is caused by an X linked recessive gene. Joe doe not have hemophilia and Lucille is heterozygous for the condition. What is the chance that their MALE child will have hemophilia? (Note: you are calculating the probability for their MALE children only, in other words if they have 1 male child, what is the probability that he will be born with the disease?) 0% 1/4 or 25% 2/4 or 50% 3/4 or 75% 4/4 or 100%arrow_forwardIf two individuals are crossed (RrYy x RrYy), what percentage of their offspring will display the R_yy phenotype? (the _ could be either R or r, it would not affect the phenotype).arrow_forwardA parent has type 0 blood and their partner has type AB. What is the chance that they will have an offspring with type 0 blood?arrow_forward
