Detailed explanation-1: -The Rh factor is an inherited protein that can be found on the surface of the red blood cell. If your blood type is positive, then your blood cells have the Rh protein. If your blood type is negative, then your blood cells lack the Rh protein.
Detailed explanation-2: -Rh factor is an inherited protein found on the surface of red blood cells. If your blood has the protein, you’re Rh positive. If your blood doesn’t have the protein, you’re Rh negative.
Detailed explanation-3: -An Rh factor is a protein found on some red blood cells (RBCs). Not everyone carries this protein, though most do. They are Rh-positive. People who don’t carry the protein are Rh-negative.
Detailed explanation-4: -The Rh antigens are expressed as part of a protein complex in the RBC membrane. This complex is only expressed in cells of the erythroid line, and therefore Rh antigens are only expressed in RBCs.
Detailed explanation-5: -Rh factors follow a common pattern of genetic inheritance. The Rh-positive gene is dominant (stronger) and even when paired with an Rh-negative gene, the positive gene takes over.
