Question 10 • CV Q4 M/J Science 3 Adv 2002110 Compacted Review of Grade.7.Life for SSA Prep

Which statement describes the blood type of a person with the alleles IAIB?

Answer
A
It is type AB because A and B exhibit incomplete dominance.
B
It is type AB because A and B are codominant.
C
It is type O because A and B are codominant.
D
It is type A because A and B exhibit incomplete dominance.

Explanation

The IA and IB alleles are codominant, so both are expressed in the person’s red blood cells. A person with genotype IAIB therefore has type AB blood. The correct statement is that A and B are codominant, not incompletely dominant.
