What blood groups will the children have if the father has group 3 (homozygous) and the mother has 4.

The gene responsible for blood groups in humans is represented by three alleles A, B and O. At the same time, the O allele is recessive in relation to A and B.

The father has a 3 blood group and is homozygous, that is, his genotype is BB, and the mother has a 4 group, which means the genotype is AB.

РР w AB (4) x m BB (3)

m / f B B A AB (4) AB (4) B BB (3) BB (3)
By phenotype: 50% – 3 blood group; 50% – 4th group.

By genotype: 50% – heterozygotes; 50% are homozygotes.

Answer: in this family, children with parental blood groups can be born, in a ratio of 1: 1.
