Blood type O has neither. Situation: Guinevere decides to trace the inheritance of her blood type through her family, all the way back to her great-grandmother Natalia. Guinevere's great-grandmother Natalia, has type A blood. Natalia and her husband Claude have five children-three sons, Miguel (who has blood type A), Mark (who has blood type B) and David (who has type AB blood); a daughter (Jane) with type O blood and another daughter (Janella) with type A blood.
