Question

1.A) What is a simple mendelian pattern of inheritance?

1.B) What are the differences between the ABO blood type inheritance and the simple mendelian pattern?

Answer 1

Ans -1A Simple mendelian pattern of inheritance is the process by which genes and traits are passed from the parents to the offsprings.This is

the simplest form of genetics.Autosomal dominant, recessive are the types of simple mendelian pattern seen in nature.

Ans - 2 ABO blood type of inheritance is type of codominance in which allele from the parents combine to yield both the phenotypic characters in the offsprings.In mendelian pattern there is no such thing like codominance.The trait is either dominant or reccessive.There is no intermediate trait that comes in the offsprings or no two traits come together.
