A small number of type O individuals have the Bombay blood phenotype. Individuals with the Bombay blood phenotype always appear to have type O blood because they are homozygous recessive for the gene, H, which is epistatic to gene I. As long as at least one dominant H allele is present, the ABO blood type associated with the person's ABO genotype will be expressed. Individuals who are homozygous hh always have type O blood. The pedigree below includes two individuals with the Bombay blood phenotype. АВ A II АВ B 0 Use the above information to answer the next two questions. 1) The possible genotypes of l-2 are: 2) What is a possible genotype for Il-1? a) ^JA Hh b) l1B Hh c) ii hh d) Bi Hh e) I^1A hh A small number of type O individuals have the Bombay blood phenotype.
