Blood type O is a universal donor of all blood types but can only receive from blood type O. Blood type AB is the only blood type that is a universal receiver of any blood type, but can only receive from blood type AB.
Blood group A can donate and receive blood from blood group A. Blood group B can donate and receive blood from blood group B. Blood group AB can donate only to blood group AB and receive from any other blood group (they are universal recipent) Blood group O can donate to any other blood group ( they are universal donor) and can receive from only blood group O.
People with blood type O are universal donors, not universal recipients.
"Universal Donor" is a title ascribed to Type O blood. It is called this b/c it is compatible with any blood type. The universal receiver blood type is "type AB."
Type O negative blood is a universal donor blood type. In normal circumstances, anyone can receive type O negative blood in a transfusion. When it comes to plasma donation, type AB positive is a universal donor.
The blood type that is theoretically considered the universal donor is type O. Type O blood does not have any antigens, therefore it is compatible with any blood type.

There is no blood group that is considered as universal recipient. Blood type O individuals are considered to be universal donors.
The universal recipient blood type is AB. This blood type can receive A, B, AB, or O type bloods.
universal donor is blood type O because this blood type don't have antigen and it can be donated in the patient having any king of blood type while universal recipient is blood type AB because it does not have anti- body; blood type AB can receive any kind of blood type
No, any type B blood types including B positive are not universal donors or universal recipients. Type O is the universal donor as it has neither A nor B antigen on the red cells. Type O blood donors can donate blood to anyone. Type AB is the universal recipient type and can receive blood from all blood types.
Blood Type O+ is not universal (in ALL human beings), but is still regarded as the universal donor.
