If the father blood type A+ & mother blood type B+. What could be the possible bloodtypes of their daughter?

Answer 1

Because A and B are both dominant blood types (and the rh factor +/- is independent of parent type) the child could have any of the possible blood types: A+, A-, B+, B-, AB+, AB-, O+, O-

It's all about dominant and recessive genes and you have to know both of the parents' genes before being able to narrow down what blood type the child will have. Then, you can only give the possible options unless both the parents have strictly dominant genes and you know the child will get one from each and have co-dominant type.

Answer 2

All types of combinations are possible actually.

If the father is blood type A, this means that his genotype could be AA or AO.
If the mother is blood type B, this means that her genotype could be BB or BO.

If the mother is BO and the father AO then you can get these possibilities:
AB AO BO or OO. This means that all different blood types can be obtained.

But is the mother is say BB and the dad's an AO still then you'll get:
AB or BO.
And if the mum is BB and the dad is an AA, then all the kids'll be ABs.

(you can draw a Punnet square to get the possibilities).

As for whether the kid'll be Rh+ or Rh-, all possibilities are also possible.
Since both parents are Rh positive, their genotype can be:
Rr, rR or RR.

If the mum and dad are both Rr then you'll get,
RR, Rr, Rr, and rr. This means that there is a 25% chance that the kid'll have an rr genotype resulting in Rh-.
But the likelihood of a child possessing a genotype for Rh- is quite low and depends much on ethnicity.

So when you say that the fathers blood is A+ and the mum's B+, all possiblities are equally likely. We need more detailed information to determine the exact genotype of the mum and dad (whether homozygous or heterozygous). This may be obtained by looking your mum and dad's brothers and sisters and their parents and a pedigree chart can be made.

Hope this managed to help you even if it's in a teensy weensy way. have fun with genetics! its really cool.

Answer 3

The only possible blood type is AB for the daughter.

Here is a link to the allele combinations:

Answer 4

any of them: a+, a-, b+, b-, ab+, ab-, o+, o-. any existing bloodtype

(the - and o traits are both recessive so they can be hidden unseen in parents genotypes -because father can actually be Ao+- genotype, mother can be Bo+- genotype. therefore you can have the 0 or - trait in the child)

(kish has explained it just perfectly well meanwhile!!!!)

Answer 5

Here is a link with blood type information

Answer 6

May be A+

Answer 7

What if they had no daughter, but got a son!

Answer 8

A+, B+, AB+, or O+

Answer 9

more chances are A+,B+ and AB.

Answer 10

It can be A(+), A(-), B(+) , B(-) ,AB(+) , AB(-) , 0(+) ,0(-)
