Text Solution

AI Generated Solution

To explain the inheritance pattern of ABO blood groups in humans, we will discuss three key concepts: dominance, co-dominance, and multiple allelism. Each concept will be illustrated with the relevant blood group genotypes. ### Step-by-Step Solution: 1. **Understanding Blood Groups and Alleles:** - Humans have four possible blood types: A, B, AB, and O. - The gene responsible for these blood groups is represented by the symbol "I," which has three alleles: - \( I^A \) (for blood group A) ...
