Question

fill in the blank: Human Blood types show ___  inheritance
(most likely: autosomal dom/rec or sex linked)

blues · Answer

Autosomal inheritance.

msmr · Answer

is it dominant or recessive, or just generically autosomal?

blues · Answer

It's actually autosomal codominant.

You have two possible alleles, A and B. When both chromosomes have an A allele, the person will be AA. When both chromosomes have a B allele, the person will be B B.

When one chromosome has an A and the other has a B, the person will be A B.

And when neither an A or B allele is present, the person will be O.
