because it has no antigen in it.
Blood types A and AB will clump with the addition of anti-A serum. The serum reacts with the A antigen present in these blood types to produced clumping.
Type B and O. With type A and AB, the blood would resist the transfusion and clump up.
Type B and O. With type A and AB, the blood would resist the transfusion and clump up.
A person with type B blood can only receive type B or O because it is said to be compatible and will not clump.
Blood type O will not clump with anti-Rh antibodies because the Rh factor is a separate antigen from the A and B antigens that determine blood type. Type O blood is characterized by the absence of A and B antigens, and the presence or absence of the Rh factor (positive or negative) is independent of the A and B antigens. Therefore, if the blood type is O and Rh-negative, it will not react with anti-Rh antibodies.
blood type A
The O blood type has no antigen, therefore A and B may both receive without any reaction
Yes. It doesnt matter the blood type.
No, they cannot. A person with O+ blood has a special antigen, or protein, on its extracellular membrane. The person with O- blood will form antibodies to the antigen and attack the O+ red blood cells killing them, this will eventually cause anemia and become a health problem.
Type A has B-antigens on the outside of the blood cells. Type AB has both A or B Anti-gens on the blood cells. Type O has neither on the outside of the blood cells. Antigens detect what type of blood cells surround them. If type A came into contact with type B they would create a clump. For this reason type AB blood can recieve blood from ANY blood type but only give to type AB.
a person with O+/- blood can only receive O+/- blood respectively. O+ can give blood to any other + blood type, and O- can give blood to anyone.
If type O and O mix can they have a baby with B
