Think of the blood types as colors:
Type AB= Purple
Type A = Red
Type B = Blue
Type O = Clear
Type AB can receive A, B, or O... either one won't change the original 'color'
Type A can receive A or O
Type B can receive B or O
Type O can only receive O
You also have to take into consideration the RH factor (positive or negative)... Negatives can only receive negatives, but can donate to either positive or negative.
