A compound heterozygote has two different alleles in the same locus, either in only one strand (cis phase) or in the 2 ones (trans phase). In the first case, necessarily the strand ( or gamete ) must come from one parent; in the second, each parent transmit only each mutated allele. In both cases if the alleles are identical ( by nature or by descent ) the recipient is a homozygote, not a heterozygote .

If mother and father has A positive blood what blood type will the child have?

Could be any type, we all get our blood groups from our parents or even our grandparents so, if your child is not B positve, your child will have the same blood group as one of its four grandparents.


Why are you not geneticly identicel to your parents?

Because you get chromosomes from both parents, therefore you look like both parents, but have only certain traits from either parent. That is why you are not identical to either parent.


Can a child have O blood group if both parents have A and 3 grandparents A and 1 grand parent AB blood groups?

Yes, this is possible given the scenario. The child would have inherited both recessive alleles (OO) from its parents, meaning both parents were heterozygous for bloodtype A - AO. Each parent could have obtained this bloodtype with 3 grandparents type A and one type AB. Parent 1, for example, with two A type parents: both parents could have been AO or one could have been AA and the other AO. Parent 2, with an A type parent and an AB parent: the A type parent would be AO and the other, obviously, AB.


Can i get a dna from my half brother?

A person can have a DNA test done to see if someone is their half brother. The DNA would have to be taken from both half brothers and both parents or the parent they both believe is their biological parent.


How does a daughter cell compared to the parents cell after undergoing mitosis?

There are no differences. They are both identical to the parent.

Can a child have mother with B blood type and father has AB blood type produce a child with O blood type?

Yes - but only if both parents are heterozygote, Bo. If they are both Bo, then there is a 1/4 chance that their child will be blood type O, and a 3/4 chance they will be blood type B. If the B+ parent is homozygous ++, then all the children will have + blood. If they are heterozygote, +-, then approximately half the children will be + and half -. The B- parent must be --, so their children will always inherit a - from them.
