Solution

The correct option is D His father should be A group and mother with B group
Since the boy has AB blood group, that means he possesses A and B alleles that must be transmitted from his parents to the boy. That is only possible when one parent has A blood group while the other has B blood group.
So, the correct option is 'His father should be A group and mother with B group'. i.e option D
