- State any one difference between pollination and fertilization.
- A man with blood group A marries a woman with blood group O and their daughter has blood group O. Is this information enough to tell you which of the traits-blood group A or O is dominant? Why?
(a) Pollination is the transfer of male gametes onto female gametes, while fertilisation is the fusion of these two gametes.
(b) The man having blood group A possess two possibilities of antigen present in the blood: IAIA or IAIO
Similarly, the woman with blood group O has no antigen present in the blood: IOIO
The possible antigens present in the blood of their child is
IAIA X IOIO IAIO X IOIO
IAIO and IAIO IAIO and IOIO
But, as the blood group of daughter is O (IOIO), therefore, the man is heterozygous, with blood antigen IAIO.
The above mentioned information is not sufficient to tell if A or O is dominant during blood grouping.
