2. A man with type B blood marries a woman with type A blood. Their first child has type o blood. The couple says this is
impossible, and requests that the family be retested for their blood type.
a. Is it possible for these two people to produce a type o child?
b. What are the genotypes of both parents?
c. Draw a Punnet square to show the possible blood types of their children.

Answer :

A) it is possible if they both have the recessive O type

Answer:

Yes it is possible

Explanation:

I cannot get you a punnet square but...

Mother: Type A blood = 1 part A blood 1 part O blood = OA

Father: Type B blood= 1 part B blood 1 part O blood = OB

There is a 25% chance for O blood

There is a 25% chance for AB blood

There is a 25% chance for OB blood

There is a 25% chance for OA blood
