In biology what are blood types.?
Blood type has to do with the antigens found on the surface of your red blood cells. Type A has the A antigen, type B has the B antigen, type AB has both, and type O has neither.
Why during transfusion blood type O does not cause reaction while it contains Anti - A and Anti - B antibodies?
Blood Type 'O': Red Blood cells have neither A-antigen, nor B-antigen but generates both Anti-A and Anti-B antibodies - Blood Type 'A': Red blood cells have the A-antigen which generates the Anti-B antibodies Blood Type 'B': Red blood cells have the B-antigen and generate Anti-A antibodies The lack of antigen explains why Type "O" can safely donate to Type "A" and Type "B". The Anti-A and Anti-B antibodies generated by Type "O" is the reason "O" cannot receive donations from Type "A" or Type "B".
Blood type that contains A agglutinogens?
Type A, is this from the Blood Basics Quiz? I hate that thing.
What blood type contains neither substance a or B?
O
Which antigen does type AB blood contain?
antigen a and b and they have no antibodies.
What is the explanation for the four main types of blood?
blood type A have antigen A and anti body B blood type B have antigen B and anti body A blood type AB have antigens A and B and do not have anti body blood type O do not have antigen but have anti bodies A and B
Can an A-positive and a O-negative have a B-positivechild?
No. Neither parent has the B antigen. Only the O antigen can be "masked" by another; if A+ parent had the B gene they would be AB+, if O- parent had it they would be B-.
What blood type will you have if you have B agglutinin and lack the A antigen?
b
Does o blood type have a antigens?
Has no antigen in many textbooks it will state "no A-antigen and no B-antigen"(which imply the possibility of some other antigen) and some will even say, "no antigen" (which is true; antigens are things that attach to antigen binding sites, thus, if it does not fit any antigen binding sites, it is technically not a antigen but merely a "enzyme/protein") but this is just to reduce unnecessary and irrelevant information; they are only concerned about A-antibody, B-antibody, A-antigen, and B-antigen. Nonetheless, know that there are in fact antigens on o blood cells, they are just inactive. My guess is, N acetyl glactosamine on A antigen and Galactose on B antigens are Epitopes (: a small specific regions on antigens that are bound by the antigen receptors on lymphocytes and by secreted antibodies.) Antigens without epitopes will not be detected by antigen binding sites.
Type blood has B antibodies?
Has no antigen in many textbooks it will state "no A-antigen and no B-antigen"(which imply the possibility of some other antigen) and some will even say, "no antigen" (which is true; antigens are things that attach to antigen binding sites, thus, if it does not fit any antigen binding sites, it is technically not a antigen but merely a "enzyme/protein") but this is just to reduce unnecessary and irrelevant information; they are only concerned about A-antibody, B-antibody, A-antigen, and B-antigen.

Which of the following is not an antigen that may be found on the surface of an erythrocyte a A antigen b B antigen c O antigen d Rh antigen?
The O antigen is not an antigen that may be found on the surface of an erythrocyte. A and B antigens are present in the ABO blood group system, while the Rh antigen is part of the Rh blood group system. O blood type individuals lack A and B antigens on their red blood cells.
Why in type ab blood there is agglutination in anti A serum and anti B serum?
As Blood type O contains Anti-A-Antibodies and Anti-B-Antibodies (not Antigens) Anti-A-Serum contains Anti-A-Antibodies (which reacts with A antigen not antibody) Anti-B-Serum contains Anti-B-Antibodies (which reacts with B antigen not antibody) so antibody in antiserum will not find any antigen in blood-group O to react with so no Clumping
