Summary Introduction
To review:
The four types of ABO blood and the surface antigens and plasma antibody present in them.
Introduction:
According to the ABO blood type system, the human blood can be grouped into four types based on the antigen present on the surface of RBCs (red blood cells). On the surface of the RBC, a specific type of antigen is present in each individual. The persons who have the same antigen on the RBC surface are capable of transmitting blood between them. However, those individuals, who carry different antigens, are not able to permit blood transfusion between them.

- Choose all the correct statments. A person with type AB blood can receive a transfusion form a type O individual. A person with type O blood can receive a transfusion from a type AB individual. A person with only the A antigen on the surface of red blood cells is type A. They also have anti B antibodies in their plasma. A person with antigens A and B on the surface of their red blood cells is type AB and have no antibodies in their plasma. A person with the Rh factor is Rh+. A person who is type O has the O antigen on the surface of their red blood cells, and have anti A antibodies in their plasma.arrow_forwardAn individual with Type B+ blood requires a blood transfusion.
