Summary Introduction
To determine:
The way in which the blood type O relates to specific genes I and H.
Introduction:
Blood typing is a process to identify the type of blood present in an individual. In humans, the ABO blood group typing is the most common. ABO blood group typing has four

Hemophilia is inherited as a sex-linked recessive trait. A non-hemophilic man marries a non-hemophilic woman whose father had hemophilia.
With respect to this information, indicate all possible genotypes their children could possibly have.
Show ALL work using punnett squares.
A child has type O blood. The mother has type B blood. The mother has a paternity suit against a man with type A
blood. Could this man be the child's father? What is the genotype of the child, mom, and father?
In the 1950s, A young woman sued film star/director Charlie Chaplin for parental support for her illegitimate child. Charlie Chaplin‘s blood type was already on record as type AB. The mother of the child had type B and her son had type O blood. The judge ruled in favor of the mother in order Charlie Chaplin to pay child-support cost for the child.
Briefly explain why the judge was not correct in his decision based on blood typing evidence?

- Two babies in a maternity ward have lost their identity bands, and there is some confusion about their footprint records. Baby #1 is type A blood; #2 is type B blood. If you are one of the mothers and your blood type is O, which one of the following statements applies. Explain your answer. Neither baby could be yours. The type A baby is yours. The type B baby is yours. Either baby could be yours.arrow_forwardHomer Simpson goes to the hospital to run some tests. The doctors there ask him what his blood type is, but unfortunately he does not know. What he does know is that Marge Simpson has type A blood, their daughter Lisa has type A blood, their son Bart has type B blood, and their daughter Maggie has type O blood. What is Homer's blood type? Make sure to show a Punnett square to justify your answer. *arrow_forwardOn a recent episode of CSI, multiple people came forward claiming to be parents of a crime victim.

- Elise is a freshman college student taking Introduction to Biology. In lab, she is asked her parents’ blood types to complete a Punnett square. She knows that she has type A blood and that her mother has type B, but she does not know her father’s blood type. Elise’s professor assures her that she can figure out her father’s blood type just by knowing her own and her mother’s.How can this be determined, and what is her father’s blood type?arrow_forwardBelow is the pedigree of one form of hemophilia. Which type of hemophilia can you rule out? (You should try to write out the genotype of each individual to see whether you can rule one out)arrow_forwardA 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.arrow_forward
- Use the following information to answer the next question. In humans, the allele for normal blood clotting, H, is dominant to the allele for hemophilia, h. The trait is X-linked. A woman who is not a hemophiliac has a father who is a hemophiliac. If this woman has a child with a man who is a hemophiliac, what is the probability of them having a hemophiliac son? (Record your answer as a frequency between 0 and 1 rounded to two decimal places. Include the decimal.) Answer: Answerarrow_forwardA woman with B type blood gives birth to a baby with O type blood.
