In humans, there are tree alleles for blood type: A, B, and O. The allele for blood type A and the allele for blood type B show incomplete dominance. A person with both alleles has blood type AB. Both A and B dominate type O. A person with alleles for blood types A and O marries someone with alleles for blood type B and O. List the types of blood their offspring could have and the probability for each blood type in the offspring.

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.
