The blood group of Krutika is O Rh +ve. What would be the possible blood groups of her parents?

Answer»

1. Krutika has O blood group, therefore her genotype is I°I°. 

2. Her parents can be of following combinations. 

3. They may be having blood group A or B with heterozygous genotype respectively, i.e. IAI° and IBI°. If both of them are heterozygous, having either A or B blood group, Krutika can be of O type. 

4. Other possibility is both the parents have to be O. 

5. For being Rh positive, her at least one parent should be Rh positive. Rh negative is a recessive phenotype and hence needs double dose of these genes.
