Answer:

1/2.

Explanation:

The autosomal dominant trait may en defined as the trait that can express itself even in the heterozygous condition and in the homozygous dominant condition as well.

Let the B allele is responisble for the roll tongue and b is recessive allele. The woman can roll the tongue and she must have the genotype Bb because her one parents is normal.

Marked in light green are the individuals whose AB type of blood we can determine from the saliva too.
And marked in orange are the individuals that are homozygous recessive for the s allele, and we could not determine their blood type from their saliva.
