Question 1

Someone with an O blood type is suspected to be the father of a child with B blood. Is
this possible?
Answer using correct terminology in 1-2 sentences.



Sagot :

It can be possible because the mother can present B blood phenotype. This opens the possibility of she having an heterozygous genotype of I^b i or I^b I^b which are dominant over the genotype of the O type father.
