Detailed explanation-1: -Blood group B has B antigens with anti-A antibodies in the plasma. Blood group A has A antigens on the red blood cells with anti-B antibodies in the plasma. This combination of antigens and antibodies determine which blood type you can be safely given for medical purposes.
Detailed explanation-2: -In the AB blood group, both the antigens A and B are present on the red cells of the individual, and the serum contains neither anti-A nor anti-B antibodies.
Detailed explanation-3: -Identifying ABO blood types People with type A blood have the antigen A on the surface of their RBCs, while people with type B blood have the B antigen. Individuals with type AB blood have both A and B antigens, whereas people with type O blood have no antigens present (there is no antigen O).
Detailed explanation-4: -If your blood is A positive (A+), it means that your blood contains type-A antigens with the presence of a protein called the rhesus (Rh) factor. Antigens are markers on the surface of a blood cell.
