Genotype

The literal allele combination responsible for producing the phenotype

Is It Genetically Possible for These Two to be the Parents of Baby Herman? Betty Sue: Type O JimBob: Type B Baby Herman: Type O

This scenario is only possible if JimBob is heterozygous (BO). If JimBob is BB, then this is not genetically possible

Is It Genetically Possible for These Two to be the Parents of Baby Herman? Betty Sue: Type A JimBob: Type B Baby Herman: Type O

This scenario only works if Betty Sue and JimBob are both heterozygous (i.e. if Betty Sue is AO and JimBob is BO)
