There are four blood types, and not all are equally likely to be in blood banks. In a certain blood bank, 49% of donations are type O blood, 27% of donations are type A blood, 20% of donations are type B blood, and 4% of donations are type AB blood. A blood bank wants to know how many donations will be required, on average, to achieve at least one of each of the blood types. Is it appropriate to use the geometric distribution to calculate probabilities in this situation?

Yes, the geometric distribution is appropriate.
No, since each trial is not independent of the other trials.
No, because it is not looking for the first occurrence of success.
No, since a success and failure on each trial cannot be defined.
