- Mrs. Moon has type B blood. Mr. Lee has type O blood. Their son Haneul has type O blood. Make a Punnett square to show what Mrs. Moon's genotype must be to have a child with type O blood.arrow_forwardA couple decide to have a child. They require and select a suitable sperm donor who they understand to be blood group AB and rhesus +ve. The carrier of the baby is blood group A and rhesus –ve. However, when the baby is born, they discover that the baby’s blood group is O rhesus +ve. Worried that there has been a mistake they ask for a DNA test, which confirms the sperm used was indeed that of the donor. Further DNA analysis of the carrier of the baby shows that she has isoagglutinogen alleles IA iO, while the baby is actually IB and IO. How would you explain the outcome of the blood group to the couple? What is the chance that any other children will be blood group O using the same sperm donor? What further medical considerations should the couple consider for this child and additionally for any other subsequent pregnancies?arrow_forwardIf Nancy has type A blood marries Sam who has type B blood, what percent of their children will have type AB blood?
