A person with A-type can also donate to someone with AB-type as well, provided there is no conflict with any other bloodtyping (rhesus positive or negative being the major one). This is because antibodies on the blood cells in the donor are treated as invaders if they are not the right type. The recipient's body then acts in the same way as it would when fighting off a normal virus or invader; they attack the foreign cells and this creates clots throughout the circulatory system. This poses serious risks to the recipient, as they can block the arteries and veins and cause hypoxia and anaemia, as well as heart problems with life at major risk.

Yes. A person with blood group antibody B can not donate blood to another person with group A because it will agglutinates as they blood group A can only be donated to to a person with blood group A. Even though you donate whole blood, all of it is not given unless you both have the exact blood type. A person with A type (who has B antibodies in their plasma) will only donate their cells. No antibodies will be given. So AB can be given A but without the plasma which has the antibodies.

Can an individual with O blood group donates his blood to an A blood group person?

A person with Type O can donate to any other blood type, but can only receive blood from another Type O person. A person having blood group O (with absence of Rh-factor) only can donate his blood to any other individual. Rh or Antigen-D is a factor which decides the positivity or negativity of the blood, so the blood group O-negative is considered the universal donor, as it does not effect any of other blood groups.
