You are working in a regional Blood Bank that performs paternity testing. The following request comes to you. These children have been typed for MNSs. The results are as follows:
Child 1 - Ns;
child 2 - MNSs;
child 3 - MS;
child 4 - MNs.
The mother's phenotype is MNs and the alleged father's phenotype is NSs. Is is possible that one of the children may not belong to the father? why/why not?
I want to make a punnett square here.. but I am confused on where to start.
Third children may not belong to father which have blood group MS. MS blood group only possible when the father also inherited M allele to the child. The M and N allele show codominant expression, both allele expresses itself when present together, so MS phenotype is not possible.
