so that it can be tested for abnormalities
A) imaging ...karyotyping
B) sexing.... imaging

A woman has been trying to conceive for several years, unsuccessfully. At a
fertility clinic, they discover that she has blocked Fallopian tubes. Using modern
technologies, some of her eggs are removed, fertilized with her husband's sperm,
and implanted into her uterus. The procedure is successful, but the couple
discovers that their son is color blind and the blood type O. The woman claims
that the child can't be theirs since she has blood type A and her husband has
blood type B. Also, neither parent is color blind, although one grand parent (the
woman's father) is also color blind. As a genetic counselor, you would explain to
the parent that
A) the eggs must have been accidentally switched, since the baby's blood type has
to match one of his parents
B) each parent could have contributed one recessive allele, resulting in type O
blood
C) the eggs must have been accidentally switched, since a type A parent and a
type B parent can have any type children except O
D) it is possible for the baby to have type O blood, since type O is inherited
through a dominant allele
B) each parent could have contributed one recessive allele, resulting in type O
blood
