Detailed explanation-1: -Answer and Explanation: The genotype of a woman with type A blood whose father has type O blood is AO. This is because the O blood allele is recessive and will only produce the O blood type of both alleles in a person are O. Thus, her father has a genotype of OO.
Detailed explanation-2: -The child with blood group O will have the genotype ii, one from each parent. Hence the father has the genotype IOIB. Q.
Detailed explanation-3: -But it is technically possible for two O-type parents to have a child with A or B blood, and maybe even AB (although this is even more unlikely). In fact, a child can get almost any kind of blood type if you consider the rule-breaking exceptions.
Detailed explanation-4: -Type O Blood Genotype Blood type O has no antigens attached to the red blood cells. It contains type A and B antigens in the plasma portion of the blood. It can be either positive or negative for Rh factor. Blood type O is the most needed blood type for donations and transfusions.
