I)
Read the following information on this website
to answer the following questions:
1.
Human blood type is determined by alleles.
2.
Define codominant alleles.
3.
The gene for blood type has how many alleles?
4.
What are the 3 alleles for blood type?
II)
Click on “Blood Type Genotype” at
the bottom of website (http://www.biology.arizona.edu/human_bio/problem_sets/blood_types/genotypes.html)
NOTE:
·
The allele for Blood Type A is co dominant to allele
for Blood Type B. If you inherit allele
A from Mom and Allele B from dad, then the blood type of the child is AB.
·
“O” Allele is always recessive to allele A and
allele B for blood type.
5.
If you are Type A blood, what are the possible
genotypes?
6.
If you are Type B blood, what are the possible
genotypes?
7.
If you are Type AB blood, what are the possible
genotypes?
8.
If you are Type O blood, what are the possible
genotypes?
III)
Go to the following website to answer the
questions below:
1.
Read the information and summarize each section
of the reading into summary statements.
2.
Complete the following chart:
