Doc18 Memo Activity 34 Inheritance of Blood Groups 1710148173

The document outlines an activity focused on the inheritance of blood groups in Life Sciences, detailing various genetic combinations and principles such as co-dominance and allele inheritance. It includes specific examples of blood group genotypes and phenotypes, as well as explanations regarding parental contributions to offspring blood types. Additionally, it discusses the limitations of blood group testing in determining paternity.

Theme Inheritance of Blood groups Date

1.1. 1√

1.2. 3√

1.3. a) IAIA, IAi√

b) ii√

c) IAIB√

1.4. It is when one gene has more than two alleles √


Blood groups is one 1 gene √
But have THREE alleles√
IA , IB and i√

2.1. 3

2.2. Co-dominance – both alleles IA and IB are equally dominant whereby both alleles express
themselves in the phenotype in the heterozygous condition IAIB

2.3

P2 Phenotype Man blood group AB x Female blood group BP


Genotype IAIB x IBiP
Meiosis
Gametes IA IB
Fertilisatio IB A B
II B B
II
n i IAi IBi

1 mark for correct gametesP


1 mark for correct genotypesP

F2 Phenotype 1 with AB blood group, 2 with B blood group, 1 with A

3. Both parents must be heterozygous B /IBi√


The offspring will inherent the i from √ IB i
Bothe her parents√ B
I IB I B IB i
i IB i ii
Since the question ask explain learners cannot give a diagram

4.1. a) IBIB or IB i

b) ii

4.2. Blood group O genotype is ii√


The baby girl have to receive one i from the father, √
But the father have only IA or IB allele to give√

4.3. Blood groups can definitely tell us who not the father is
However, cannot tell who is the father, because many male have the same blood group

5.1. IAi
5.2. Mother
5.3 Son 1
