Answer: Antigens
Explanation: The ABO system of blood grouping is based on the basis of the type of antigens that are present in the red blood cells. Erythrocytes is another name for the red blood cells. Antigens are molecules that are capable of eliciting immune response. There are two types of antigens: antigen A and B. Blood type A has only antigen A, blood type B has only antigen B, blood type AB has both antigen A and B while blood type O has no antigen (neither A nor B antigen).
Similarly, Rh trait is determined by the presence or absence of rhesus antigen in the erythrocytes. Rhesus antigen is an antigen first discovered in rhesus monkey. Rh+ indicates the presence of rhesus antigen in the red blood cells while Rh- indicates the absence of rhesus antigen in the red blood cells.

Answer:
The inheritance pattern is CODOMINANCE
Explanation:
Codominance is a type of non-mendelian inheritance i.e. does not follow Mendel's principles of inheritance, in which two alleles of a gene are both dominant, hence, they are both simultaneously expressed in that gene.
Examples or cases of codominance are the AB blood type in humans where alleles A and B are both expressed in the gene. Also, red and white striped flowers in certain plants is an example of codominance as red and white alleles are both expressed.
