Genetics, blood type gene has two alleles, each allele has genotype A, B or O. The A and B are dominant, and O is recessive. So allele A combined with allele O is type A. Similarly, BO is type B, AA is type A, BB is type B, OO is type O, and AB is typeAB.

If both parents have type A blood, then the alleles could be AA or AO, thus the allele A frequency is 75%, allele O frequency is 25% for both parents. 
So the chance of alleles OO is 25% × 25% = 6.25%, 
alleles AA is 75% × 75% = 56.25%, 
alleles AO is 75% × 25% = 18.75%, 
alleles OA is 25% × 75% = 18.75%.
Since AA, AO and OA are blood type A, and OO is blood type O, thus their child has 6.25% chance to be blood type O and 93.75% chance to be blood type A. 

The +/- is called the rhesus factor, with + being dominant, and - being recessive.
So if both parents are -, the kids are always -, otherwise the kids might be + or -.

Describe the factors that influence an individuals phenotype
atroni [7]

Answer:

Physiology, behavior and morphology are considered as phenotype of an individual as these attributes can be observed. Example of  phenotypes include wing length, hair color, skin color and  height.

<u>There are basically two factors that influence the phenotype:</u>

<u>(1) Genotype or Genetic information of the individual:</u> Some of the phenotypes such as height and skin color are transmitted genetically from generation to generation. Genetic information is the transfer of genes that carry some of the specific genetic information and pass it to another generation which is visible in their phenotype.

(2)<u> Environmental influence:</u> As the phenotype attributes are variable so they are highly influenced by the environment or surrounding they are living. Environmental condition such as temperature, diet, humidity, oxygen levels, and the presence of mutagens affects the phenotype of an individual.

Hence, Genotype and environmental factors influence an individuals phenotype.
