When a person with B blood receives O blood in a transfusion?
Nothing. O blood is the universal donor, which means any blood type can get O blood in a transfusion. Although this is true blood type O can only receive blood type O. This is because Blood type O has no antigens but has both antibodies A and B.

Why is it important that a person with type o blood only receive a blood transfusion from another person with type o blood?
A person with type B blood can only receive type B or O because it is said to be compatible and will not clump.
Why can't a person with type o blood receive a transfusion of type a blood?

What blood type does a person with Type A get?
I assume you are meaning in a transfusion. The ideal blood should be a perfect match. A positive should get A positive. In an emergency an A positive can receive any blood that has no B genotype. O+/-, A+/-,but NO B or AB.
If type O blood is transfused into a person with blood type B what will need to be done to the blood?
Since a patient with Type B blood has B antigens on their RBC's and since Type O blood has both anti-A and anti-B antibodies present in the blood plasma, the donor blood needs to be treated before transfusion. The Type O blood needs to be separated into packed cells and plasma, usually done by centrifuge, and only the packed cells should be used for the transfusion. Remember the anti-B antibodies are present in the Type O blood plasma and could cause serious damage in the system of a patient with Type B blood.
