1. Codominance-Blood types Human blood types are determined by genes that follow the codominance pattern of inheritance. There are three different alleles for human blood type (multiple alleles), blood type A and Type \( B \) are codominant, while type 0 is recessive. \begin{tabular}{|c|c|c|c|c|} \hline Alleles & Blood Type & Antigen & Can receive blood from| Can Aranatewo \\ \hline \end{tabular} Backgroundi: Type " \( A \) " indicates the presence of one type of antigen (protein that can "activate" Your immune system) and type "B" represents a different antigen on the surface of a Red Blood Cell (RBC). Type " \( O \) " has no antigen on the surface of the RBC. Blood type l'i would mean that the person has both the dominant blood type A as well as the recessive blood type \( \mathrm{O} \), thus they would simply be blood type \( \mathrm{A} \) (the recessive \( \mathrm{O} \) is completely covered up). Only blood types with matching antigens, or no antigens can be mixed. This is why you cannot give a person with type A blood a transfusion with type B blood. If you did, the body of the person with type A blood would attack the antigens on the type B blood, thinking that it was a foreign invader. The type A blood would then clot up and the parient would die. Different antigens are incompatible with other blood types, however blood with no antigens is compatble. with all blood types. 1. Fill in the missing antigen pictures in the table. 2. Based on what you have read about blood typing and the antigen pictures that you have drawn, add the missing information in the columns "Can donate to" and "Can receive blood from"
