A man with type A blood whose parents were both type AB marries a woman with type B blood whose parents were both type AB. If you were the paramedic who had to perform a transfusion to save the life of their child, what type of blood would you use? (Draw a Punnett square to help you).

Solutions

Expert Solution

Answer= blood type A, B ,AB or O

Explanation =

A man blood type = A

genotypes of man = I^AI^A( because parents have blood group AB. genotypes = I^AI^Bone A comes from mother and one A from father.)

Woman blood type = B

genotypes of woman = I^BI^B( because parents have blood group AB. genotypes = I^AI^Bone B comes from mother and one B from father.)

children:

	I^A	I^A
I^B	I^AI^B (blood group AB)	I^AI^B (blood group AB)
I^B	I^AI^B (blood group AB)	I^AI^B (blood group AB)

their all children have same blood type = AB

If I were the paramedic who had to perform a transfusion to save the life of their child, I can use A, B, AB or O type of blood .

because blood type AB is the universal acceptor.he can accept the blood from all blood types.
