ANATOMY

Detailed explanation-1: -blood group A – has A antigens on the red blood cells with anti-B antibodies in the plasma. blood group B – has B antigens with anti-A antibodies in the plasma. blood group O – has no antigens, but both anti-A and anti-B antibodies in the plasma. blood group AB – has both A and B antigens, but no antibodies.

Detailed explanation-2: -Aside from the sugar (glycan or carbohydrate) antigens, the red blood cell membrane contains three types of protein that carry blood group antigens: single-pass proteins, multi-pass proteins, and glycosylphosphatidylinositol (GPI)-linked proteins.

Detailed explanation-3: -Antigens are surface proteins found on red blood cells. Type O negative blood is the only blood type with no antigens. Blood type A has an A antigen, while blood type B has a B antigen. Blood type AB has both A and B antigens.

Detailed explanation-4: -The liquid part of your blood without cells (serum) is mixed with blood that is known to be type A and type B. People with type A blood have anti-B antibodies. People with type B blood have anti-A antibodies. Type O blood contains both types of antibodies.
