The correct Answer is:
To determine the possible blood groups of the offspring from a father with blood group A and a mother with blood group B, we need to consider the genotypes of the parents and how they can combine. ### Step-by-Step Solution: 1. **Identify the Genotypes of the Parents:** - The father has blood group A. This can be either homozygous (AA) or heterozygous (AO). - The mother has blood group B. This can also be either homozygous (BB) or heterozygous (BO). 2. **Case 1: Both Parents are Homozygous** - If the father is homozygous (AA) and the mother is homozygous (BB), the possible genotype of the offspring will be: - Cross: AA (father) x BB (mother) - Offspring: All offspring will be AB (genotype IaIb). - Possible blood group: AB. 3. **Case 2: Both Parents are Heterozygous** - If the father is heterozygous (AO) and the mother is heterozygous (BO), the possible combinations of alleles can be determined using a Punnett square: - Cross: AO (father) x BO (mother) - Possible offspring genotypes: - IAIB (AB) - IAiO (A) - IBiO (B) - ii (O) - Possible blood groups: A, B, AB, and O. 4. **Conclusion:** - Depending on whether the parents are homozygous or heterozygous, the offspring can have the following blood groups: - If both parents are homozygous: Only AB. - If both parents are heterozygous: A, B, AB, and O. ### Final Answer: The offspring of a father with blood group A and a mother with blood group B can have blood groups A, B, AB, and O, depending on the genotypes of the parents. ---
