If your blood clumped with both anti-A and anti-B serawhat would be your ABO blood type?
A person with both A and B antigens is designated as having AB bllod group
The technical term for a person neither fat nor thin?
Mesomorph
What ABO blood type most common and least common?
ABO blood typing is a method for differentiating individuals' blood based on the presence or absence of two antigens, A and B. The most common blood type in the world is O positive, which has neither the A nor the B antigen.
How is blood type o a universal doner?
There are 4 blood types (A, AB, B, and O) excluding the pos or neg aspect, which are all based on the Antigens on the surface of the Red Blood Cells (RBCs). These antigens are what Antiboies detect and bind to and, because antibodies each bind two antigens, they join up all the cells making massive structures that cannot flow through the blood and cause clots. So for example the A antigen will be detected by the anti-A antibody and cause the clott to be forlmed. For this reason we do not have in our systems the antibodies capable of dececting our own antigens, so if you have A antigens (type A blood) you will have only anti-B antibodies and vice versa. If you have both A and B antigens (AB blood) you will have neither anti-A nor ant-B antibodies. If you have no antigens (type O blood) you will have both the anti-A and anti-B antibodies. Recieving donor blood which as antigens to which your own antibodies will be atracted will mean that the blood you receive is clotted up. For exampl is a type A (has anti-B antibodies) receives type B blood (has B antigens) then the antibodies will bind the donor cells. However if a type AB (no antibodies) receives any sort of donor blood it will accept it freely as there are no antibodies tobind any antigens. This is why AB type is known as the Universal Reciever, as it can receive blood from any blood type donor. So if a type O (with both antibodies) receives A type or B type or AB type donor blood then it has antibodies that will bind any of them causing a clot. However O type blood also has no antigens on it RBCs so no matter what antibodies are present the cells will not be bound. This means tha O type donor blood can be put into any resipient without feer the recipients antibodies will bind the cells, and thus O type blood is known as the Universal Donor.
What blood type contains neither substance A nor substance B?
No.... that's why it is called O blood type..... learn some biology.
Why is O blood the universal donor?
It has neither A nor B antigens.
When neither anti- a sera nor anti-b sera clot on a blood plate with donor blood the blood type is?
If neither anti-A nor anti-B sera clot with donor blood, the blood type is O. The blood does not have the antigens that will close clotting with the antibodies in the serum.
Explain blood type?
Blood types, as people commonly know, has a classification which is simply based on two things: * ABO group * Rhesus factor Now, the ABO group, depends on two antigens; antigen A and antigen B. which lie on the surface of the RBC: * A person having an A antigen on his RBC cells will show a blood type of A * A person having a B antigen on his RBC cells will show a blood type of B * A person having both A & B antigens on his RBC cells will show a blood type of AB * A person having neither of those antigens will show a blood type of O Second, the rhesus factor, which depends on a single antigen; antigen D, which also lies on the surface of the RBC: * A person having a D antigen is called an Rh positive, e.g. A, B and D antigens' presence exhibit a blood type of AB+ (universal acceptor) * A person without the D antigen is called an Rh negative, e.g. Neither A, nor B, nor D antigens' presence exhibit a blood type of O- (universal donor). Both factors combine to form the blood types as we know them today.
Is it possible for blood type to change if a person has lupus and forgets to take their medication?
Neither lupus nor lupus medication can change a person's blood type.
Is a mesomorph a person who is neither fat nor thin?
Yes, a mesomorph is a person neither fat nor thin.
Which type of blood is the universal recipient?
A universal donor can donate to any blood type. The only universal donor is 0 negative because it doesn't have an antigens. Antigens are things that fight off foreign objects in your body, like white blood cells. A universal recipient can receive any type of blood. The only universal recipient is AB positive.
What is the most common universal blood type?
The most common type of blood is O positive. This type of blood is known as the universal donor because neither A nor B antigens are found on the surface of the red blood cells and this type of blood therefore can be given to an individual with any blood type in need of transfusion.
If your blood clumped with both anti-A and anti-B serawhat would be your ABO blood type?
A person with both A and B antigens is designated as having AB bllod group
A person with type o blood?
it has red blood cells with neither a nor b antigensand has anti a and antib antibodies last but lest it is a universal donor
What is a descriptions of a blood type of O?
The gene coding for the antigen (glycoprotein) in the membrane of the red blood cell (that determines a person's blood group) codes for no antigen. The person has inherited this allele from both of their parents and has the genotype IO IO.
Which blood type has a neither anti - a nor anti -b antibodies?
Blood group AB
Can plasma be used in ABO group?
blood plasma contains no antigens nor antibodies so yes it is universal and can be accepted by anybody.
