Chapter 17, Problem 21CRQ
Summary Introduction
To identify: The red blood cell surface antigens (Ag) and plasma antibodies for blood types A, B, AB, and O.
Introduction: The blood type is determined by the surface antigens present on the RBCs. Surface antigens are substances present on the plasma membrane of the RBCs. Surface antigens are recognized as self or normal by the immune system.
