Chapter 21, Problem 7P
A large, random mating population is started with the following proportion of individuals for the indicated blood types:
0.5 MM
0.2 MN
0.3 NN
This blood type gene is autosomal, and the M and N alleles are codominant.
| a. | Is this population at Hardy-Weinberg equilibrium? |
| b. | What will be the allele and genotype frequencies after one generation under the conditions assumed for Hardy-Weinberg equilibrium? |
| c. | What will be the allele and genotype frequencies after two generations under the conditions assumed for Hardy-Weinberg equilibrium? |

A negligence action was brought by a mother against a hospital on behalf of her minor daughter. It alleged that when the mother was 13 years of age, the hospital negligently transfused her with Rh-positive blood. The mother's Rh-negative blood was incompatible with and sensitized by the Rh-positive blood. The mother discovered her condition 8 years later during a routine blood screening ordered by her healthcare provider in the course of prenatal care. The resulting sensitization of the mother's blood allegedly caused damage to the fetus, resulting in physical defects and premature birth.
Did a patient relationship with the transfusing hospital exist?
