I am practicing discerning heriditary blood type questions. Please guide me with my first question.

Chapter 22 review (No points, these are simply for practice)
In humans, the ABO blood groups are controlled by three alleles (only two of
which occur in any one individual): the alleles for A and B type blood are co-
dominant toward each other, and both are dominant to the allele for O type
blood.
A.lf a person with type AB blood has children with someone with type O
blood, what are the possible phenotypes (blood types) of their offspring?
B. Determine the genotypes of the parents, if one parent has type A blood
and the other has type B, but all four blood groups are represented in the
children. Express using the appropriate symbols.
C. Determine the genotypes of the parents, if one parent has type AB and
the other has type B, but 4 of the children have type A blood, 1/4 have type
AB, and 1/2 have type B. Express using the appropriate symbols. I

Expert Solution
Step 1 Introduction:

The ABO classification is the most important and relevant for blood compatibility. A small number of antigens and antibodies are responsible for the ABO blood types.
