A father with type B blood and mother with type A blood have a child. Their child, while in a biology lab at school, tests her b

lood and discovers she has type O blood. Does she have any concerns about her parentage?
A. Yes, because she should have type AB blood if they are her true biological parents.
B. No, because type O blood is possible if her parents both had genotypes AB.
C. No, because both of her parents could be heterozygous.
D. Yes, because both of her parents might be heterozygous.
E. No, because blood types A and B are codominant.

C. if the father was B, the mother was A, and the child had O, then the father had to be Bi and the mother had to be Ai

C. you can have an A or B blood type but also have recessive genes that could give an O if parent were heterozygous, like if the mother was A-i (i being recessive gene that could give 'O') and the father was B-i then if you do a punnett square then you can see that there's a 25% chance she has i-i or type O blood.

scoray [572]

Answer:

(2⁵)²: 1024 combinations

Explanation:

In this case, the chromosome haploid number (n) of the target species is equal to 10, and therefore its diploid number (2n) is equal to 5 (i.e., somatic cells in the target species contain 5 pairs of chromosomes). That means that one individual can produce 2⁵ or 32 different gametic combinations. Moreover, the number of possible combinations that emerge from paring different gametes (sexual reproduction) can be calculated as (32)² = 1024 combinations.

erastova [34]

The sets of alleles for each parent are Dm for the mother and DM, Dm, dM, and dm for the father. This information is fundamental for estimating genotype and allele frequencies in offspring.

<h3>What are alleles?</h3>

Alleles are gene variants for a given gene <em>locus</em>, diploid organisms inherit two alleles for each locus (one from each parent).

Gametes are germinal (haploid) cells that carry specific allele combinations.

The analysis of gamete combinations is fundamental to estimate genotypes and allele frequencies.

What gets passed from one cell to another in sexual reproduction
RoseWind [281]

Answer:

Cell division is the mechanism by which DNA is passed from one generation of cells to the next and ultimately, from parent organisms to their offspring. During meiosis, the cells needed for sexual reproduction divide to produce new cells called gametes.
