Multiple Alleles up to this point, we have dealt with genes that only have two allele forms. Howevsed for a particubutnow th characteristics are marny by multiple alleles. This means there are more than 2 allele forms that can population. Even though there are multi are more than just two options. Here are a few questions dealing with a common ple alleles, humans can carry trait that has multiple alleles: ABO are a few questions deain atiflonly carry two alleles (being diploid), but now there Questions: Multiple Alleles 13 The three alleles for blood type in humans are A, B, and O. The alleles for A and B and O. The alleles for A and B show incomplete dominance to A and O alleles marries someone each other, while both A and B alleles dominate over the O allele. A person with with B and O alleles. Find the blood types any offspring could have, and the probability for 14 Use the information in question .13 for this problem. A young woman with type O type O blood. The type A blood is the father of the baby. Could he be the father? If so, could blood typing prove he is the father? Explain. blood had a baby who also had paternity of this child was in question and the case went to court. The woman claims a man with 81211 General Biology I Rogue Community College

Explanation / Answer

ans-13

There are 25% probability for each of the blood group - AB, AO, BO, and OO.

ANS-14 yes the person with the bllod group AO may be the father of the child as the allele O from AO of the father may be contributed in blood typing of child. yes it may be detected by blood grouping but DNA profiling is best detection in case of paternity.

B O A AB AO O BO OO
