A single gene in humans causes blood to be either rhesus positive (dominant allele) or rhesus negative (recessive allele). A woman with rhesus-negative blood has already had a child with rhesus-positive blood. There could be complications during pregnancy if she has another child with rhesus-positive blood. What is the probability of this, if the father is the same, and if his mother is known to have rhesus-negative blood?
