Could a man with an O blood type be the father of an AB child? Why or why not? Explain why ABO blood types are an example of codominance. If a mother has type O blood and the father has type AB blood and they have a child together, what is...
Blood Type Inheritance: Blood groups are A, B, AB, or O. Inheritance of blood group is an example of codominance where both alleles can be expressed. If a person is B positive they can be homozygous B positive and their genotype would be BB, or they could be heterozyg...
In pedigrees of families with multiple affected generations, autosomal recessive single-gene diseases often show a clear pattern in which the disease "skips" one or more generations.Phenylketonuria (PKU)is a prominent example of a single-gene disease with an autosomal recessive inheritance pattern. Si...
Blood Types: Blood types are determined based on what specific markers are present on your red blood cells. These specific markers are also known as antigens, which are composed of proteins and sugars. There are two main blood groups within humans: ABO and Rh. ...
Distinguish between codominance and incomplete dominance. Give an example of each type of inheritance. For blood type, we see codominance. Which two blood types are codominant? Which blood type is recessive? What are the inheritance and dominance patterns of the Rh blood system?
What is an inheritance pattern in which the phenotype of a heterozygote is in between the phenotypes of the homozygotes? A. allele B. autosome C. codominance D. dominant E. gene F. genotype G. heterozygous H. homozygous I. incomplete dom...
codominance C. pleiotropy D. epistasis E. polygenic inheritance What is the genetic makeup or set of alleles of an organism called? What is it called when both alleles are expressed? (For example, a black chicken crossed with a white chicken produces a checkered chicken.) What pr...
Make a pedigree to illustrate its pattern of inheritance. Describe codominance and multiple alleles, using the inheritance of ABO blood groups as an example. What are the 4 phenotypes of blood? What are the 3 alleles? What are the 6 possible genotype options of blood? How are dominan...
In codominance, if a man, who is heterogeneous blood type-A, reproduces with a woman, who is homozygous type B, what are possible blood types of their children? Consider the cross AaBb X aabb. Among the progeny, how many phenotypes ...
If one parent is type A and the other type B, but all four blood types are represented among the children, what were the genotypes of the parents? What is a gene? What is an allele? Give an example of 2 alleles of a human gene. What are gene...
