20. Person #1 is of unknown blood type as shown below.

a. It is possible that they could be OO, as that would give the two children below.

b. It is possible that he is BO, as that would still give both children.

c. It is possible that he is AO, as that would also give both children.

d. Person #1 cannot be a genotype of AA nor BB as an AA parent couldn't produce a Type B child, and a BB parent couldn't produce an Type A child.

The genotype of person #1 is then OO, BO, or AO.
