groups are so important medically that you should be able to solve genetics problems
based on blood types. The first step in accomplishing that is to understand the genotypes of
each blood type. Before working any problems, complete this ABO blood type chart. Begin
with a key.

- The ABO blood system has been used to settle cases of disputed paternity. Suppose, as a geneticist, you must testify during a case in which the mother has type A blood, the child has type O blood, and the alleged father has type B blood. How would you respond to the following statements? a. Mans attorney: The mother has type A blood, so the childs type O blood must have come from the father. Because my client has type B blood, he could not be the father. b. Mothers attorney: Further tests prove this man is heterozygous, so he must be the father.arrow_forwardUse the pedigree to answer the questions that follow.

Can the genetic evidence decide in favor of either? Will you be able to confidently decide on the identity of the father based solely on the data on blood type?

A cross is made between pure breeding blind cavefish and pure breeding sighted cavefish. The lines are pure breeding. The resulting RFLP markers of the F1 offspring and the F2 (from an F1XF1 cross) offspring are shown. F1 F2 A. If the disease gene is 10 m.u. from the RFLP marker, what proportion of the F2 will have the gel pattern shown above AND be blind? Show your work B.
