Summary Introduction
Introduction:
A man has blood group B and a woman has a blood group A cross with each other to form the offspring. The offspring formed can have blood groups of type A, B, or O. The alleles of blood group A, B combine to form the blood group A, B, AB or O according to the combination of the alleles respectively.

- A woman with blood type B has a child with blood type O. Her husband, whose blood type is A is concerned that the child may not be his. Based on what you learned from the inheritance of the ABO blood group system, what conclusions would you make? (Assume that both parents and the child normally produce the H-substance). The husband should not be concerned because the A and B blood types from the parents cancel each other in the child to produce an O type. The husband is right to be concerned because neither of the parents have O type blood. The husband is right to be concerned because only the blood types A or B are possible in their child. The husband is right to be concerned because only the blood groups A, B, or AB should be possible in their offspring. The husband should not be concerned because he and his wife may each be carrying an O allele.arrow_forwardc) What blood types could be observed in children born to a woman who has blood type A and a man who has blood type AB?
