Is it normal for surgical clips to be left in after gallbladder removal surgery?
Surgical clips are necessary when getting your gallbladder removed. When your gallbladder is removed, it leaves an opening in your common bile duct. Normally this opening is where the liver pumps bile into for storage in the gallbladder. Since you no longer have a gallbladder, if this opening was not sealed with surgical clips, your liver would essentially be pumping bile into your abdomen.

A dirty washroom wouldn't affect your gallbladder, since the gallbladder isn't connected to the outside of your body. You might be thinking of your bladder.
Can an individual with O blood group donates his blood to an A blood group person?
A person with Type O can donate to any other blood type, but can only receive blood from another Type O person. A person having blood group O (with absence of Rh-factor) only can donate his blood to any other individual. Rh or Antigen-D is a factor which decides the positivity or negativity of the blood, so the blood group O-negative is considered the universal donor, as it does not effect any of other blood groups.

Probably not a good idea since Pseudoephedrine raises your blood pressure.
Can you donate blood after an ear piercing?
I don't see what the issue would be. If you're in good health, but have piercings then you should not be disqualified as a donor. Think of the millions and possibly billions of people with at least ear piercings and they aren't denied (for having piercings) the opportunity to donate to Leukemia patients.
Can a blood type O father give blood type A to his offspring?
It depends on the mother's genotype. O blood is recessive, so the father has OO blood. Both A and B are dominant, so an AA or AO genotype would result in a type A blood phenotype. Since the father is homozygous recessive, he must donate an O. Therefore, for the child to be type A, the mother must donate an A to create an AO genotype for the child. So, if the mother has type A blood or type AB blood, the child could have type A blood.
If it is wrong for a Jehovah witness to donate blood where does the blood fractions they use come from?
Since the Bible commands us to "abstain from blood" accepting blood fractions is left up to the conscience of the individual witness. Some are OK with fractions, considering them no longer blood. Others refuse them also. It seems unlikely a witness would donate their blood if it may be used for a transfusion (and therefore break God's law). So I assume blood fractions would have to come form blood donated from non-witnesses.
If a person has blood type A he or she cannot receive a blood transfusion from a person with blood type O?
It depends on what you mean by "blood". If you mean Red Blood Cells, it is due to somthing called antigens. Type O has IgM anti-A antibodies and anti-B antibodies in blood serum, and this would "attack" blood that had A or B antibodies. Since AB has both, it cannot donate to O, and O can only receive O. With regards to Blood Plasma however, AB can donate to any group, including O.
