Consider the inheritance of blood types in humans. (Read each statement carefully. Select all of the statements below that are true (that you agree with). Leave any statements that are false (that you do not agree with) un- selected.) A woman of blood type B can have a child of blood type O with a man of any blood type except AB. OA person of blood type AB can have a full sibling of any blood type phenotype. Full sibling means sibling from the same parents. A person who is homozygous for /B is expected to have a blood type B child. A person who is genotypically Ai can have a child of any blood type phenotype.

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.
