Chapter 4, Problem 38P

Draw a pedigree containing two parents and four children. Both of the parents have AB blood type. The first child is type A, the second child is type AB, and the thrd child is type B.

a. Assign the genotypes to these five people.

b. The fourth child tests as having blood type O, which is not possible given the parental genotypes. Look at Figure 4 .4 and read the description of the molecular process that generates ABO blood group antigens. What other mutation could account for thi observation?

c. What is the name of the genetic phenomenon producing this observation?

Sarah and George have been married for 6 years. They had a daughter 5 years ago and her blood type is AB. Sarah had complications during her birth and was transfused with three pints of type A blood. The couple recently welcomed a new baby boy to their family. He has the blood type O. What are Sarah and George’s genotypes? Select one: a. Sarah's Genotype George's Genotype   IAIA  ii b. Sarah's Genotype George's Genotype  IAi  IBi c. Sarah's Genotype George's Genotype  IAi  IBIB d. Sarah's Genotype George's Genotype  IAIA   IBi
Help me create a pedigree of this information: Pedigree analysis:   Generation 1: Normal parents (AA x AA) Generation 2: Carrier parents (AA x AS) Generation 3: Affected child (AS x AS) Generation 4: Affected grandchild (SS)   This pedigree has two normal parents in the first generation. Second generation carriers carry the sickle cell trait from one parent. The disease is 25% more likely to be inherited in the third generation if both parents have the 'S' allele. If both parents have the 'S' allele, their children will have sickle cell anemia in the fourth generation
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?
