3. A couple just had a baby, who has type-O blood. Upon learning the baby’s blood type, the father becomes infuriated and accuses the mother of cheating on him.

What is the relationship between the IA, IB , and i alleles? b. Is the father right? Or is he falsely accusing the mother? Explain. Include the genotypes of the parents and the genotypes of their potential children.

Inheritance and Mendelian Genetics

Inheritance means the passing of traits to offspring from parents. These traits could be passed either through asexual reproduction or sexual reproduction. The offspring receives the genetic material from the parents. Mendelian inheritance is a certain biological inheritance that follows the rules and principles laid down by Gregor Mendel in 1865. The initial hypothesis was considered wrong, but other inheritance theories modified the concept of inheritance and thus genetics.
