Type O+ blood is compatible with AB, A+, B+, and O+ blood types. That is, if your blood type is O positive, you can receive AB, A positive, B positive, and O positive blood types.
Type O is compatible with any other types (in that it can be donated to anyone). Type A is compatible ONLY with Type A and Type AB. Type B is compatible with itself and Type AB. Type AB is compatible with any of the others (it can receive from any of the other types).
You are compatible with your own blood type and type O, unless you are type AB, then you are compatible with A, B, AB and O. It's important to have compatible blood types especially during pregnancy.
When the body encounters types of blood it is not familiar with, it makes antibodies to attack it. That's why O- is the universal donor. O means it has neither A or B components, and the negative means it does not have specific receptor proteins on it. That's also why someone AB+ can have any type of blood, because the body is used to A components, B components, and receptor proteins.
Should be. i believe o+ universal for all types (but check with med expert)
O+ is compatible with all Blood types. A+/- B+/- O
More than just two blood types are not compatible with each other. The four basic types of blood are: A, B, AB, O(not counting Rh). Type A blood can only receive blood from type A and type O. However, type A blood can donate their blood to type A and type AB. Type B blood can only receive blood from type B and type O. However, type B blood can donate their blood to type B and type AB. Type AB blood can receive blood from every type, A, B, AB, and O. However, type AB blood can only donate to other AB. Type O blood can only receive blood from type O. However, type O can donate their blood to A, B, AB, and O. So, AB is the "universal" reciepient and O is the "universal" donor.
no
no
"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."
I believe type O blood is the one blood type that can be matched to any of the other blood types. There is one type of blood, though, that is not compatible with type O blood. However, that is very rare.
You would get whatever blood type was most compatible with your own, either O or your own (Type A or B). Type O is compatible with every other type. If you are Type AB, however, you could receive blood from ANY of the other types.
