C) B positive is the right answer

Explanation:

Codominance

ABO blood group is an example of co dominance. According to this

Two alleles are both dominant, So A and B are both co dominant, they will express and I allele which will be recessive.

Type A AA or Ai

Type BBB or Bi

Type AB AB

Type O ii

Rh antigen is dominant to Rh- (for positive and negative due to presence of Rh antigen

So for Rh+ = RR (homozygous dominant) and Rr (heterozygous dominant)

Rh-= rr (homozygous recessive)

Given conditions in the questions

Given type Alleles for type Allele for Rh antigen

Type A Woman A+ Ai Rr

Daughter Type O+ ii R?

Son type B- Bi rr

Father type Bi Rr or rr

•As mother is A positive, so definitely the son got his B allele from the father, so father should have allele.

•So as the daughter is ii, so it means the daughter is getting one i allele from mother and other i allele came from the father

•As the son have B allele which comes from father, so what is son getting from mother? Definitely he is getting i allele from mother because that the only way mother can donate to the son and not change his blood type.

•No we know that the son is rr for Rh antigen, which means that he is getting one r from mother because she must have a little r to donate to her son and one r from father

The father is either type B Positive BiRr or type B Negative Birr, but we have no other answer than type B positive in the multiple option. This is the possibility

Cladistics is a way of classifying organisms by examining the characteristics of their ancestors and descendants and depicting the relationships in a cladogram. which of the following best describes a challenge in classifying organisms this way? a. there are millions of species on earth, and a cladogram is not a practical means for classifying all of them. b. it is impossible to tell which organisms are most closely related to each other using a cladogram. c. cladograms are detail-oriented and do not provide a useful understanding of evolutionary relationships. d. there is a limited number of ways to organize the information, so most cladograms end up looking very similar.
