Disclaimer:
- This calculator is for informational purposes only and does not constitute medical advice.
- Blood type inheritance can be complex, and this calculator only provides probabilities based on the ABO and Rh systems. Other factors and rare blood types are not considered.
- For accurate blood type determination, please consult with a healthcare professional.
How It Works:
The calculator uses Punnett squares to determine the possible combinations of alleles (genes) for blood type (A, B, O) and Rh factor (+ or -) that a child could inherit from their parents. These combinations are then used to calculate the probabilities of each blood type and Rh factor.
