Choose the most appropriate answer from the options given below :
Options
A.C & B only
B.D & E only
C.A only
D.B only
Solution
Sol. [Key Concept: ABO blood group inheritance]
For an O group child (ii), each parent must contribute an i allele. Therefore the B group father must be Iᴮi and the A group mother must be Iᴬi. Their offspring can be IᴬIᴮ, Iᴮi, Iᴬi or ii. Only set A fits the stated parental and child ABO groups, so option (3) is correct. Rh positivity is inherited separately and does not alter this ABO deduction.
