Okay here I go with the tl;dr post about blood types and why am I doing this I don't even know and heck everything is all from what I remember I don't even take pure biology but meeeh correct me if I'm wrong!
So anyways, there are basically 4 different blood types A, B, O, and AB. Let's not talk about the negative and positives here because they are from a whole different category but just so you know, negative is a lot rarer.
So anyways, blood type A and B, if you take biology and know the term, are the dominant type, meaning that even if they are the priority blood type, I'll explain that later. So taking blood type A for example. The reason why A and B are so common, is because of the combination of blood types possible. Say, your parents are both blood type A. Then naturally, you will be an A. However, there is also a 1/4 chance that your blood type will be an O, assuming that your parents both carry the 'O' blood as well.
Blood tests only show you whether you'll be A+ or A-, but they don't show you the pair. It's like how genes work, they come in pairs. Even if reports show that you're an A+, you can either be an AA+ or an AO+ Blood type O is recessive (which means you will only be an O if both sides are OO+/-) but equally common because a lot of people also carry that unseen O in their A or B blood type.
So how it works. Let's say for example, your mom has the blood type of AO+, where as your dad, has a blood type of BO+ These are the best combinations that will lead you to having all possible blood types, because of all the combinations and chances there will be. Your offspring, will either be AB+, AO+, BO+ or OO+ (also means just O+) This is the only combination where AB+ will be possible, which is why it's rare. AB, being both dominant blood types, will both show, and this is what they call co-dominance, where both sides will appear, instead of the pair blood type being hidden.
Blood transfusions, only works for what is shown, meaning whether you are an AA+ or an AO+, you can only receive blood from an A+, or an O+. THIS IS WHY THE O BLOOD TYPE GIVES TO EVERYONE! AB, being both dominant, will mean you can only get it from AB and also from O. (Because the O is always there people! In this case, it's ABO!)
So here! Now you have a better understanding of how blood types come about! If you want your child to be of a certain blood type, you can just go for one of those detailed blood tests with your partner and request for them to show the pair together instead of just A, B, O, or AB. And yeah, it might not be all through, just from that 1 lesson I sat through cos I had my own questions for sub-bio and wanted to ask that teacher and she was still teaching so I just sat in and yeah I absorb things really quickly. :/
