A man with blood type A and a woman of blood type B have a baby girl of blood type O. The man sues his wife for divorce, on the grounds that it is not possible for the baby to be theirs (since the blood type is not A, B. or AB). Evaluate the lawsuit on the basis of genetics (A, B alleles are co-dominant over the recessive O allele).
IA = A allele IB = B allele iO = O allele
Label each true or false

A. AT =C/G
B. Quantitative geneticists are interested in identifying the number of genes
contributing to a phenotype
C.Inbreeding depression is associated with decreased heterozygosity
When people move to hot climates, their bodies increase sweat production to manage the heat-induced body stress. This increase in sweat production is associated with an allele change within the individuals genome.
a.
True
b.
False
