Today, I found out my blood type is B. My parents are type A and type O. It's not genetically possible to be blood type B if your parents are A and O. This means I am either an adoptee, a mutant, or an illegitimate child. FML

Okay guys - this is simple biology here. It's 7th grade stuff, not rocket science. Everyone has two blood type genes, one from their father and one from their mother. The blood type means the markers on your red blood cells. A marker - type A. B marker - type B. Both - AB. Neither - O. Now, the mother is type A. That is her phenotype. Her genotype is the two genes she received from her parents. This can be either AA or AO because O is recessive. The father's genotype is O. His only possible phenotype is OO. Alright. Now the only two genes present here are A and O. Because the father cannot have an A, these parents can only produce an AO or OO child, or type A and O. Therefore, in order to be type B, either the mother is really AB or the father is actually B, because yes, type A and B can make B if the type A is genotype AO. Okay? Okay. Sucks for OP though... could be sperm donor, or one of your parents forgot their blood type, or mom cheated, or you're adopted. And sorry for having such a long comment.

If you were adopted, it's just wrong for you to find out like that. I was adopted when I was two, and my parents told me as soon as I could understand what it meant. In that case, it is probably about something else. But that would suck.

that could also mean ur dad isnt actually ur real dad

Hey dumbass it's possible, learn how blood type is really passed on and do a punnett square. So f ur life for being stupid

Oh yes to the guy above saying the only determining factors are A B and O that's not true his father prolly had OOi to the b ( I say this because I am unable to make exponents) and his mom prolly had AOi to the b and Oi to the b with Oi to the b makes B type blood. So these other not commonly known factors can make this blood type possible tho it is not very likely, yet still possible. So good news kid it's possible
