Blood Kit


lab tech Labtech: Hey , how are you doing?
   
  :
I'm keeping busy... Could you give me a hand with these blood samples?
   
lab tech Labtech: Sure... If you want to test the samples, use the Blood Test Kit tool.
   
  :
O.K... I'll do that.
   
lab tech Labtech: Once you get those results, use this chart to help you calculate with the Punnet Calculator:
Blood Type Punnet Symbol
  Homozygous Heterozygous
A IaIa Iai
B IbIb Ibi
AB   IaIb
O ii  
 
lab tech Labtech: Since you don't know if those blood types are homozygous or not, you will have to guess-and-check, trying all possible values in the calculator, until you get one combination that seems correct.
   
lab tech Labtech: Once you figure out which baby belongs to which parent, you will need to calculate the numerical probability for this.  I can't seem to find any calculators around this lab, but it's pretty easy math anyway.  For example, if 3/4 of the offspring resulting from the combination of Mr. and Mrs. Joad's blood types had the same blood type as baby #1, then the probability that this is their baby is 75%.  Once you figure this information out, you'll be ready to solve this mission!

Hey, thanks for all your help, I'll run these calculations and go ahead and solve this problem!
