Multiple Allele So far we have studied traits or genes that are coded for by just two alleles. Like in rabbits, there was one al
lele for brown hair color and one allele for white hair. However, some traits are coded for by more than two alleles. One of these is blood type in humans. This is a violation of Mendel’s Principle of unit characteristics. 5. In humans, there are four types of blood; type A, type B, type AB, and type O. The alleles A and B are codominant to each other and the O allele is recessive to both A and B alleles. So a person with the genotype AA or AO will have A type of blood. (5pts) a. What possible genotypes will produce B type of blood
The correct answer is BB genotype and BO genotype.
Explanation:
The human blood system or ABO system shows codominance due to the multiple alleles. That means three different alleles for human blood type are present are IA, IB, and i. For easy understanding can be stated as A (for IA), B (for IB), and O (for i).
If someone has blood type B could have a genotype of either BB or BO because of the dominance of B allele on O where is If A allele present with B allele it would show co-dominance.
Thus, the correct answer is the BB genotype and BO genotype.
Answer: An independent variable is exactly what it sounds like. It is a variable that stands alone and isn't changed by the other variables you are trying to measure.
