Here's a two-parter.
- Describe this person's karyotype in the form of (46, XY)
- Is there anything wrong with this person? If so, what is the name of the disorder?

Okay. Here goes: A male with blood type A marries a woman with blood type AB. They have four children. List the genotypes and phenotypes of these four children.

Since the genotype of the male isn't specified, he can have two possible genotypes. If the male has a genotype of AA, then the four children would be: Genotype- 2:2 (50% AA, 50% AB) Phenotype- 2:2 (50% type A, 50% type AB) If the male has a genotype of AO, then the four children would be: Genotype- 1:1:1:1 (25% AA, 25% AO, 25% AB, 25% BO) Phenotype: 2:1:1 (50% type A, 25% type AB, 25% type B)
