H-Bombay blood group is a recessive phenotype, and mutations in the FUT1 gene are the cause of this blood group as it controls the synthesis of H antigen on RBC surfaces. Determine the percentage of offspring with the H-Bombay blood group when both the parents have blood group O and are heterozygous for the FUT1 gene.
