A person with A type blood could never have a child that is O type.
A x A = AA (A)
A x B= AB (AB)
A x O = AO (A)

Sure. I have type O blood, but my mother has type B. My father has type O. (My sister has type B. )
Type O children (like me) must get an O from each parent in order to have that blood type--so I know that my mom is not a pure type B. She got an O from one parent, and a B from the other, as did my sister. The non-O always determines the blood type when combined with O.
Here are the possible blood types for offspring and what each parent might contribute:
AB = A+B
A = A+A or A+O
B = B+B or B+O
O = O+O .
The only situation where a child absolutely couldn't be type O would be if either parent had type AB blood.

All blood types are a combination of a dominant and a recessive gene.O is a recessive gene so if it is combined with an A or B, which are both dominant, then O doesn't show but is still there. So if you are A(O) and your partner is OO or BO or AO then it is definitely possible for you to have an type OO child. You definitley are an AO if you're the mother otherwise they gave you the wrong baby at the hospital!But your partner cannot be AB because if he is then he definitely is NOT the father.

yes if both parents supply the type o gene remember spiral helix parents each give 1/2 of their DNA type a blood can be A/O or A/A meaning if it's A/O and they give O and the other parent gives an O then the child will be type O blood..

yes it's possible .
this is the explaination. we have many kind blood clasification, usualy use letter kind and Rh kind.
1. Leter kind; there are a, b, and o. they will form A, B, O, and AB blood. the combination are:
aa and ao will be A blood;
bb and bo will be B blood;
oo will be O blood;
and ab will be AB blood.
2. Rh kind, there are Rh+ and Rh-. they will form + and - blood. the combination are:
Rh+Rh+ and Rh+Rh- will be + blood;
and Rh-Rh- will be - blood.
ok, back to your case, let's combine it.
the child has O+ blood, it's mean the child has blood kind combination oo,Rh+Rh+ or oo,Rh+Rh-, the first parent has A+ blood, its mean the first parent has blood kind combination ao,Rh+Rh+ or ao,Rh+Rh-. so we can get the combination are the second parent has A+, A-, B-, B+, O-, or O+ blood, please try to combine by your self.

Yes ..it is perfectly possible..maybe mom was O+ basically she would have to be....At least both are pos..if a neg was in there as in mom ..there would of been other treaments at birth and the father would be aware of the circumstances..if mom wished so

it would depend on the blood type of the other parent. if the other parent is type O then yes it would be possible. If the other parent isn't type O then no it isn't possible.

yes. O is a recessive trait so the other parent would have to have an O gene as well.
