Short Answer: Type A blood can receive a transfusion from Types A or O.
Why?
The blood cell has a protein identifier (antigen) on its outer cell membrane.
If the person is Type A, B or O, they also have an antibody in their plasma (blood fluid) that protects the person against either Type A or B transfusions.
Blood type A can receive a transfusion from blood types A and AB.
Depending on whether you are A+ or A- you can receive different types of blood. If you have A+ blood you can often receive blood from A+, A-, O+, and O-. However, if you are A- you can only usually receive blood from A- and O-.
If you have blood type B with antibody A, you can safely receive blood from donors with blood types B and O. Blood type B individuals have antibodies against blood type A, so receiving blood from donors with blood type A or AB can elicit an immune response.
A person with type O can receive only type O blood.
Yes, it can
Type O can receive type O. Type A can receive type O or A. Type B can receive type O or B. Type AB can receive type O, A, B, or AB.
The blood type that can receive blood from the most other blood types is AB positive (AB+). This universal recipient can accept red blood cells from all ABO types (A, B, AB, and O) and from Rh-positive and Rh-negative donors. As a result, individuals with AB+ blood type have the least restrictions when it comes to receiving blood transfusions.
The blood type AB is a universal receiver meaning it can receive blood from blood types A, B, AB, and O.
AB blood types can receive blood from any donors, also known as "Universal Recipients". Your blood, however, can only be received by other AB types. To contrast, type O blood types can give blood to anyone, but can only receive type O blood.
A person with type O blood can only receive type O blood. This is because type O blood has no A or B antigens, making it incompatible with type A, type B, and type AB blood. Therefore, they cannot receive blood from any other blood types.
Not taking Rh Factor into consideration, O is the universal donor. All blood types can receive type O. For information, AB is the universal recipient. They can take any blood type. Remember, this excludes the Rh Factor.
Blood type is determined by the type of antigen
