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.
- Type A plasma carries the antibody "I hate B" that would agglutinate a Type B or AB transfusion.
- Type A has no antibodies to Type O cells & therefore O would be a candidate.
- Type A has no antibodies against itself and therefore A would be a candidate.
