In the 1950s, A young woman sued film star/director Charlie Chaplin for parental support for her illegitimate child. Charlie Chaplin‘s blood type was already on record as type AB. The mother of the child had type B and her son had type O blood. The judge ruled in favor of the mother in order Charlie Chaplin to pay child-support cost for the child.
Briefly explain why the judge was not correct in his decision based on blood typing evidence? 
Homer Simpson goes to the hospital to run some tests. The doctors there ask him what his blood type is, but unfortunately he does not know. What he does know is that Marge Simpson has type A blood, their daughter Lisa has type A blood, their son Bart has type B blood, and their daughter Maggie has type O blood. What is Homer's blood type? Make sure to show a Punnett square to justify your answer. *
Sunday Afternoon
It’s another beautiful day in Springfield and the Simpson family has decided to take a family
outing to the Springfield Clinic to have their blood types tested. A few pin-pricks later, they
have their information, which is summarized in the table below. (If you’ve been marooned on a
deserted island without TV reception for the past 20 years: Homer and Marge are the parents;
Bart, Lisa and Maggie are their three children.)

- 4:33 4 Alger Edit Today 4:31 PM O LIVE Which of the following statements regarding Mendel's observations and Laws are still true and part of our knowledge of genetics today? (Check all that true.) M Two alleles segregate during meiosis, ending up in different gametes. Each pea plant has 2 alleles for every gene, but only contributes one in each gamete. The recombination of alleles in a zygote is completely random. The Law of Independeht Assortment was determined by following three traits in pea plants, TMendle was able to determine his Law of Segregation by following ane trait in pea plants. Every offspring inherits only 1 allele from each parent.arrow_forwardPedro and Karli have a baby girl Ella by in vitro fertilization. Ella does not resemble either one of her parents, so they suspect that the clinic made a mistake during the procedure and implanted the wrong embryo. At Ella’s first well-baby checkup they insist that she get her blood typed. Baby Ella is type A-positive. Pedro is A-negative and Karli is O-positive. Kara is B-positive and her father has A-negative blood. Kara marries Ryan, who is A-negative. Ryan’s father has O-positive blood. (d) What is Kara’s genotype? (e) What is Ryan’s genotype?
