Which of these children will always be homozygous for both the blood group alleles and the Rh blood group system?
Options:
Answer:
D
Solution:
Rh antigen follows normal Mendelian inheritance. If 'R' is the allele which produces Rhesus antigen and 'r' is the allele which doesn't, then a person with Rh+ve blood group can be RR or Rr while a person with Rh-ve blood group will always be rr (always homozygous). Person with A blood group may have genotype IAIAor IAIO. A person with AB blood group has genotype IAIB. A person with blood group O has genotype IOIO(always homozygous)
If the person is heterozygous for both blood group systems, genotype should be IAIBRr (AB Rh+ve child)
