What can be the possible blood groups of progeny whose father and mother are of A and B group respectively?
(1) A and B only
(2) AB only
(3) All except O
(4) A, B, AB and O
In humans, the dominance relationship between the A and B alleles of ABO blood group gene is an example of
(1) complete dominance.
(2) incomplete dominance.
(3) codominance.
(3) epistasis
A gene showing codominance has
(1) one allele dominant on the other
(2) alleles tightly linked on the same chromosome
(3) alleles that are recessive to each other
(4) both alleles independently expressed in the heterozygote
Match the terms in Column I with their description in Column II and choose the correct option.
Column I |
Column II |
A. Dominance |
1. Many genes govern a single character |
B. Codominance |
2. Ina heterozygous organism only one allele expresses itself |
C. Pleiotropy |
3. In a heterozygous organism both alleles express themselves fully |
D. Polygenic inheritance |
4. A single gene influences many characters |

If two persons 'AB' blood group marry and have sufficiently large number of children, these children could be classified as 'A' blood group : 'AB' blood group : 'B' blood group in 1 : 2 : 1 ratio. Modern technique of protein electrophoresis reveals presence of both 'A' and 'B' type proteins in 'AB' blood group individuals. This is an example of
(1) codominance
(2) incomplete dominance
(3) partial dominance
(4) complete dominance
