13. Below make a sketch of what Shelly's blood type test results would look like. Rh 14. A woman with a blood type A- has two children; one has blood type A+ and one has blood type AB+. She gets pregnant a third time by a man with blood type 8-. In theory, is the fetus in danger of developing hemolytic disease of the newborn? Explain why or why not. 15.In practice, would this woman be treated to prevent hemolytic disease of the newborn? 16. Is this man above the father of the woman's fist two children? Explain why or why not

Explanation / Answer

Ans:
(13) The information is incomplete to answer the question.

(14) Hemolytic disease of the newborn occurs when a Rh- woman gets pregnant with a Rh+ baby. In this case the man is also Rh-, so the baby does not has a chance of developing hemolytic disease of newborn.

(15) This woman would not be treated to prevent hemolytic disease of newborn, because the of the baby's Rh- status.

(16) This man cannot be the father of her first two children, because they are Rh+. This man can only pass Rh- allele to his children and so do the women. So the first two children must have a father who is Rh+.
