To determine: The ABO genotype of the three individuals.
Introduction: The blood group of an individual is determined by the presence of a certain kind of antigen on the surface of blood cells. A, B, AB, and O are four major blood groups found in human beings. The determination of the blood type of an individual is essential before the process of blood transfusion.
b.

- Not part of a graded assignment, from a past midtermarrow_forwardNoggin mutation: The mouse, one of the phenotypic consequences of Noggin mutationis mispatterning of the spinal cord, in the posterior region of the mouse embryo, suchthat in the hindlimb region the more ventral fates are lost, and the dorsal Pax3 domain isexpanded. (this experiment is not in the lectures).a. Hypothesis for why: What would be your hypothesis for why the ventral fatesare lost and dorsal fates expanded?
