Does the male determine blood type?
The gender of a parent does not influence the determination of blood types in offspring.
Blood type is determined by inherited genes, specifically variations in the ABO blood group system and the Rh factor (positive or negative). These genes are located on specific chromosomes that both sexes pass on to their offspring, following specific inheritance patterns.
