Rh is the chemical symbol for rhodium.If you meant "Rh" as in "Rh factor" in blood, it doesn't stand for a chemical. It stands for "rhesus", the kind of monkey (actually a macaque) the researchers who initially discovered it used to produce the serum.
If a person has the Rh factor, then they are positive. If they don't have the Rh factor, they are negative. The Rh factor is dominant, so a mother with it would have an Rh positive baby even if the father is negative for the Rh factor.
The phenotype that determines the Rh factor in blood is based on the presence or absence of the specific protein antigens on the surface of red blood cells. A person can be either Rh positive (having the protein) or Rh negative (lacking the protein) based on their genetic inheritance.
No, both men and women should be concerned with the Rh factor. The Rh factor is a protein found on red blood cells, and it can cause complications during pregnancy if a woman is Rh-negative and her partner is Rh-positive. It is important for both partners to be aware of their Rh status to prevent such complications.
type O and A is the type, you also have an Rh factor-either positive(meaning you have the factor) or negative(the Rh antigenis not present). All blood types can have a positive or negative rh factor so you need to know whether you and the father or RH positive or negative
The initials "Rh" stand for Rhesus factor, which is a protein found on the surface of red blood cells. This factor is important in blood typing, as individuals who have the Rh protein are considered Rh positive (Rh+), while those who do not have the protein are considered Rh negative (Rh-).
The Rh factor is a protein that can be present on the surface of red blood cells. If someone has the Rh factor on their red blood cells, they are considered Rh positive. If they do not have the Rh factor, they are considered Rh negative.

The rh blood factor was first observed in Rhesus monkeys
No, your Rh factor does not change over time.
Having the Rh antigen protein in blood makes you RH factor positive.
If both parents have the same Rh factor (positive or negative), there is no risk of Rh incompatibility that could affect future pregnancies. Rh factor only becomes a concern when the mother is Rh-negative and the father is Rh-positive, which can lead to Rh incompatibility in the fetus.
If a person has the Rh factor, then they are positive. If they don't have the Rh factor, they are negative. The Rh factor is dominant, so a mother with it would have an Rh positive baby even if the father is negative for the Rh factor.
I think Rh is not a blood group. Rh stands for a factor and derived its name from factor found in the blood of Rhesus monkey.
i think that !
Rh factor or rehsus factor is also involved in blood groups. either a person is Rh+ or Rh- if u are A+ then u have blood group A and you are Rh+ if you are A- then you have blood group A and you are Rh-
Rh factor is a protein that is found in the blood of about 85% of the population. Those who have the factor are Rh positive, while those who don't, are Rh negative. A person who is Rh negative can safely donate blood to persons with or without the protein. A person who is Rh positive can only donate to those who are Rh positive.
