Heheh...nice one I guess this is common though amongst Macedonians!

Hadn't you said in the past you are a doctor? What do you think of such kinds of theories? Totally crappy, aren't they?

[julie]

wow, that is amazing, to be a doc and not know it!

Well thats funny that you ask. Here at the office where we work we have a chart up (totally satire) that breaks down the DNA composition of each blood type depiciting the traits or characteristics one should have with these blood types.

Type A's are the most artistic of the blood groups.

Blood-Type B: Goal oriented and strong minded, type B's will start a task and continue it until completed, and completed well. Type B's are the individualists of the blood group categories and find their own way in life.

Blood-Type AB: Type AB's are the split personalities of the blood groups. They can be both outgoing and shy, confident and timid. While responsible, too much responsibility will cause a problem. They are trustworthy and like to help others. Blood-Type AB is most compatible with AB, B, A and O.


Blood-Type O: Type O's are outgoing, and very social. They are initiators, although they don't always finish what they start. Creative and popular, they love to be the center of attention and appear very self confident. Blood-Type O is most compatible with O, and AB.



But to get back to your question is blood type hereditary? can we link a line through blood to a specific group we could if we genetically altered every macedonian race from the beggining with the simple strain of DNA

There are racial and ethnic differences in Blood type and composition. The ABO Blood group system was discovered in 1901 and since it is of major importance in medicine, samples have been diligently collected from the most remote of people groups for a century. Of no other human characteristic is so much data available. Most populations have migrated and mixed. Unfortunately the reliability of the Blood data for assessing relationships between population groups is very limited. This is mostly due to the lack of availability and interchange of this important data. As the chart below reveals, the frequency and purity of the four main ABO Blood groups varies in populations throughout the world. Great variation occurs in different groups within a given country; even a small country, as one ethnic group mixes, or not, with another. Blood type purity depends on migration, disease, interrelational-reproductive opportunity, traditions and customs, geography and the initial Blood type assigned.
The frequency with which Blood types are observed is determined by the frequency with which the three alleles of the ABO gene are found in different parts of the world. Variation in this allele frequency of the ABO gene reflects the social tendency of populations to marry and reproduce within their national, regional, or ethnic group. As people throughout the world intermingle to a greater degree, the distribution of the different Blood types will continue to become more uniform. Red cell antigens are the pheno-typical expression of our inherited genes.

Thanks, mate, for the comprehensive answer. I know it's all crap, but this doctor insisted that there was something relatively unusual. Who knows... by the way...B+? you should join me in the non-Macedonian club... Hahahahahahah
