A. A+
B. B+
C. AB+
D. O+

Check Answer

The correct answer is C) AB+.

Blood types are determined by the presence or absence of specific antigens on the surface of red blood cells. The four main blood groups are A, B, AB and O, based on the presence or absence of A and B antigens on the surface of red blood cells, also there is a positive and negative sign that is determined by the presence or absence of the Rh antigen.

Among all blood types, people with AB+ blood are considered to be the “universal recipients.” This is because their red blood cells do not have any A or B antigens on their surface, meaning that they can receive red blood cells from any blood group (A, B, AB or O) without the risk of a transfusion reaction.

On the other hand, people with AB- blood group are considered to be the “universal donors” as they can only donate to AB- Blood group and not to other groups, however, this concept is not used in practice due to various factors like the Rh compatibility and others.

It’s important to note that the Blood types of a person is inherited from their parents, and the blood bank have a wide range of ways to check the compatibility before transfusion
