Mr. and Mrs. Flynn are concerned because their new baby doesn't resemble either of them and has type O blood. Mr. Flynn is type A and Mrs. Flynn is type B. They're sure that it's impossible to have a baby with a different blood type than the parents, and so they conclude that a mistake has been made. Are they correct? Explain your answer. Be specific. Use the correct blood alleles (IA, IB, i) in your explanation.   genotypes:   Mr. Flynn _________         Mrs. Flynn __________           their baby ___________

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.
