8. Mum has type B blood. Dad has type O blood. They have a child with type O blood. Make a Punnett square to show what Mom's genotype must be to have a child with type O blood. 9. A wealthy elderly couple dies together in an accident. A man comes forward, claiming that he is their long lost son and is entitled to their fortune. The couple were of blood types AB and O. The man has type O blood. Could he be the heir to the fortune? Show why or why not.
