No, type B blood does not have A antigens. Type B blood has B antigens.
Type AB blood has both A and B antigens on its red blood cells, so it can receive A or B donor blood without the immune system reacting. Type A blood only has A antigens, so it can only receive A or O donor blood to avoid an immune response.
The blood type that contains antigens A and B is AB. This blood type has both A and B antigens on the surface of its red blood cells.
Antigens, by definition, cause the body to produce antibodies which act against them. You inherit certain antigens which are on your red blood cells. Sometimes these antigens are absent from your RBC. If you are type B, you have B antigens. Type A has A antigens, AB has AB antigens and type O has no antigens. If you are type AB, you can receive AB blood from some one else.
If you have the genotype BO, you will have blood type B. This means you will produce B antigens. You will also produce Anti-A antibodies, meaning you cannot receive a transfusion of type A or AB blood.
The BB blood type produces the phenotype associated with type B blood. Individuals with this genotype have B antigens on the surface of their red blood cells and do not produce anti-B antibodies. Consequently, they can receive blood from type B and type O donors but cannot receive type A or AB blood.
Type AB blood has both A and B antigens on its red blood cells, making it compatible with all blood types. This is because type AB blood does not have antibodies against A or B antigens, allowing it to receive blood from any blood type without triggering an immune response.
Since that person has anti-B antibodies, then A antigens are present in her red blood cells. Since that person doesnt have anti-A antibodies, then there are no B antigens present, which means the person has A type blood.
No antigens.That is why they are the universal donors and anyone can receive their blood.
A person with neither A nor B antigens in their blood would have blood type O. This means they can receive blood only from other type O donors, but can donate blood to any blood type.
The ABO blood group system classifies blood based on the presence or absence of certain antigens on the surface of red blood cells. Type A blood has A antigens, type B blood has B antigens, type AB blood has both A and B antigens, and type O blood has neither A nor B antigens.
Individuals with blood type AB can receive blood from anyone because they have both A and B antigens on their red blood cells, making them universal recipients.
