Humans can have three different blood types: A, referring to showing the A antigen on the surface of the red blood cells, B, referring to showing the B antigen on the surface of the red blood cells, and O, have no antigens on the surface of the red blood cells. The situation in which we have three different alleles for the same gene (protein antigen expressed on blood cell) is an example of:

Hematology

Hematology is the branch of biology. Hematology is the medical field that deals with the treatment of blood disorders and cancers, such as hemophilia, leukemia, lymphoma, and sickle-cell anemia. Hematologists and hematopathologists are medical professionals who specialize in illnesses of the blood and its components.
