People with O blood can only accept O blood. this is because type O blood does not have any antigens. Types A, B, and AB blood have A or B antigens, or both, respectively. If a person receives blood with antigens their blood does not contain it will cause their blood to clot and they will die.
Yes. It's the negative blood types that can't accept blood from the positives.
Yes. It's the negative blood types that can't accept blood from the positives.
A positive blood is able to be donated to those with A positive or AB positive blood types only. It has the Rh factor located on it's red blood cells giving it the annotation "positive." A positive blood can only accept donations from those with A positive, A negitive, O positive, or O negative blood types.
The types are based on whether the blood contains rhe Rh factor or not, thus each type is either positive or negative. AB positive (not plus) can accept either AB positive or negitive, or O negative.
When someone has a blood type that is positive, it means that they are positive for the RH factor. This doesn't mean a whole lot in terms of health, but it can play a factor if you are a female and are planning to have children.
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.
AB+ is the the universal acceptor, which can receive any blood type. People with AB have no antibodies to react with either A or B blood antigen coat. O- is the universal donor, which can donate to anyone who needs blood as there are both AB antibodies.
Blood type B positive means that you have anti-A antibodies, B-antigens, and an Rh factor that is positive. As a B+, you can receive blood from people with blood types O postive, O negative, B positive, and B negative, however a B+ blood type can only donate to a person with B+ and AB+ blood type.
Because their body recognizes the A and the B types of blood, and O is recognized by all types because it has no genes
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.
AB
Doctors can determine positive or negative blood types by administering a test. The difference between positive and negative types is the presence of the RH factor. Positive blood types indicate the presence of the RH factor while negative blood types do not have this factor.
