Blood Typing Investigation

Human biology or genetics learners apply their knowledge to a unique situation: two newborn baby girls being possibly switched in the hospital. The engaging activity ends with a Punnett squares assignment in which pupils evaluate whether...

Blood types and transfusions are explained in reading passages at the top of the worksheet. A chart of blood type compatibility is also provided. Biology students answer comprehension questions and then exercise critical-thinking skills...

Whatever you do in life, always give 100 percent—unless you are donating blood. A video explains how to solve Punnett squares with multiple alleles, in this case blood types. It includes what happens if the wrong type is added, which...

Young scientists learn the importance of knowing blood types and their compatibility. The instructor in the video explains each type of blood and their antigens and antibodies, and then differentiates between AB blood and Rh blood types....

Does your blood type matter? The video explains the four main blood types and the importance of knowing blood types when performing transfusions. The interactive reviews the information with a quick graphic organizer and questions.

Here is a fascinating video that explores the genetic implications of our blood types as humans, how we can determine an individual's blood type based on cell alleles, the RH factor, and how blood types can mean life or death for those...

This site from the University of Arizona describes how blood type is passed on from parent to child. The tutorial covers the genetics of the ABO blood groups as well as Rh factor. There are even practice problems and blood type calculators!

Students learn about the science behind blood typing, and the application of that typing as it relates to human blood transfusions.

[Free Registration/Login may be required to access all resource tools.] Do you know what your blood type is? Maybe you have heard people say that they have Type A or Type O blood. Blood type is a way to describe the type of antigens, or...

Visit this site for a great article over blood typing tests. Read about the two types of blood typing tests (ABO and Rh tests), why the tests are done, how they are done, and risk factors. Also, view a chart that shows the compatibility...
