Summary Introduction

To determine: The chances of the child to have blood group A when his mother is type A and father is type AB.

Introduction: The human blood group system is an example of codominance where the alleles for the two antigens A and B are equally dominant. This means that when the two antigens A and B are present the blood group is AB while in the absence of both the antigens the blood group is O.
