Which of these determine a person's blood type and stimulate antibody formation?
Antigens determine a person's blood type. These antigens are present on the surface of red blood cells and stimulate the immune system to produce antibodies against incompatible blood types.
What are the differences between type A and type B blood types?
Type A blood has A antigens on red blood cells, while type B blood has B antigens. Type A individuals have anti-B antibodies, and type B individuals have anti-A antibodies. Type AB individuals have both A and B antigens, while type O individuals have neither A nor B antigens.
What is a good name for AB blood?
AB blood has both A and B antigens on the cells and therefore if it had any anti-A or anti-B antibodies they would cause the blood to clott and so it has neither. This means that any type of blood can be given to this person, as they will not recognise any antigens on the blood as foreign because they don't have and antibodies. On the other hand they can only give blood to other people of ht ethe type AB. Type A blood has a antigens but not b antigens so it can have anti-b antibodies and b ype blood i the reverse. O type blood has no antigens and therfore both types of antibodies. So all three other types of blood have antibodies that will recognise one or both of the antibodies and cause clotting. For this reason AB type is nicknamed the "universal receiver", meaning they can take from anyone.
What are the four types of blood and there functions?
The four blood types are a, b, ab, and o. O is known as the universal donor because it has no proteins, so it can be given to any other blood type without harming it. AB is known as the universal recipient because it can receive any other blood type but can't give any away because it has a mixture of proteins.
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.
Which blood types in terms of the ABA and Rh antigens can be donated to somebody with type AB blood?
B+ here is a guide for you: type A - A antigens B antibodies; type B - B antigens A antibodies; Type AB - A&B antigens and no antibodies; type O - no antigens and A&B antibodies. for the rh you just have to add if it is + or -.
How is blood typing?
I think it's time for me and you have no idea what I'm talking to my friends are like that you are the same thing to say up with the best yet another example is not the best of the year
What is the chemical makeup of Type O blood?
Your blood type is determined by antibodies (both/either A and B), and Antigens present (both/either A and B) in your Red Blood Cells. O blood types have both A and B antibodies, and neither A or B antigens.
Which antigens are present in your plasma if you have type O blood?
Your blood type is determined by antibodies (both/either A and B), and Antigens present (both/either A and B) in your Red Blood Cells. O blood types have both A and B antibodies, and neither A or B antigens. If you are O+ it means you can give blood to anyone. If you are O- it means you can recieve any blood type.
A person who is B positive will have?
A person who is B positive will have B antigens on their red blood cells and anti-A antibodies in their plasma. This blood type is compatible for transfusion with B positive, B negative, O positive, and O negative blood types.

Can different blood types result from different antibodies being present on membranes of red blood cells?
Not quite. Different blood types result from different antigens present on the membranes of red blood cells.
What is the clumping together of red blood cells when unlike incompatible types of blood are mixed is due to antibodies in the plasma and antigens on the?
On the surface of red blood cells Take A type blood, for instance. It has antigens against B type blood contact on its cell surface.
What is the blood type that has no antigens?
Type AB blood has no antibodies, so people with this blood type can receive blood from A, B, AB, and O types,
