Rh blood types. Human blood is typed as O, A, B, or AB and also as Rh-positive or Rh-negative. ABO type and Rh-factor type are independent because they are governed by different genes. In the American population, 84% of people are Rh-positive. Use the information about ABO type in given Exercise to give the probability distribution of blood type (ABO and Rh) for a randomly chosen person.
