General Blood Questions
ABO blood group's four main types of blood.
What is A, B, AB, and O?
Who can B Blood receive blood from?
What is B can receive O and B.
Baby has A Blood. What are their possible genotypes?
IAIA or IAi
What blood type is the universal recipient?
AB
Baby has AB Blood. What is their genotype?
IAIB
What is the term used for the genetic makeup of an organism in genetics?
Genotype
Who can B donate to?
What is AB and B?
Mom has O Blood. What is her genotype?
ii.
Who can O donate to?
Everyone as the universal donor.
Is it possible for Mom with AB blood to have an O blood baby? Why or why not?
No because Mom can give A or B but not O.
What letter allele do we use for blood?
I
Who can A blood type donate to?
What is AB and A?
Dad has B blood. What are his possible genotypes?
IBIB or IBi
Who can AB donate to?
AB
Is it possible for Dad with B blood to have an A blood baby? Why or why not?
Yes because Dad could be IBi and baby could be IAi. So they share the i trait.
If a child has O blood, what are the possible genotypes of their parents?
IAi, IBi, or ii.
Explain how a child with O blood can have a parent with A blood and a parent with B blood.
The parents could be heterozygous for their blood types which would allow them to create a child with O blood.
Mom has O blood, baby has A blood. Which partner(s) is NOT the baby daddy?
Todd = A Blood
Jason = B Blood
Samuel = O Blood
Jason and Samuel
Who can O blood receive blood from?
O blood people.
Mom has O blood, Dad has AB blood, and baby has B blood. Was this baby switched at birth? Why or why not?
Probably not. Because Dad can give IB and Mom can give i so baby could be IBi.
What does it mean to have positive or negative blood?
You have an extra protein on your blood cell (positive) or you do not (negative).
Type A blood can receive what types of blood?
What is A+ can receive O and A?
Mom has A blood, Baby has O Blood. Which partner(s) could NOT be the baby daddy?
Timothy = A Blood
Richard = AB Blood
George = B Blood
Richard.
What is the genotype of someone with AB blood?
IAIB
Mom has AB blood, Dad has B blood, and baby has O blood. Was this baby switched at birth? Why or why not?
Yes because Mom can give IA or IB and Dad can give IB or i but you need two ii to make O blood.
