The very rare Bombay blood phenotype in humans results in blood type O because of the lack of both the A and B antigens in individuals who are of hh genotype. This genotype results in blood type O regardless of the genotype at the unlinked I locus. If two parents are both of I A I B Hh genotype, what is the probability that their child will have type blood B

Available data:

  • Individuals with the rare Bombay blood phenotype lack both the A and B antigens in individuals and/or are of hh genotype.
  • Cross between two parents that are both of I A I B Hh genotype

Cross: IAIB Hh    x    IAIB Hh
