Question
which blood type is considered the universal recipient?
a type a
b type b
c type ab
d type o
Brief Explanations
In blood transfusion, Type AB blood has both A and B antigens on red blood cells and no anti - A or anti - B antibodies in plasma. This means it can receive blood from any blood type (A, B, AB, O), so it is the universal recipient. Type O is the universal donor as it has no A or B antigens and can donate to any blood type. Type A can only receive from A and O, and Type B can only receive from B and O.
