MICROANATOMY

Detailed explanation-1: -For example, if you have the A and Rh antigens, your blood type is A-positive (A+). If your blood has the B antigen but not the Rh antigen, your blood type is B-negative (B–). Rh blood type is even more important for pregnant women.

Detailed explanation-2: -A antibodies. If there are B and Rh antigens but no A antigens, the antibodies in the blood plasma are A antibodies. The blood type notation B Rh+ indicates which antigens and antibodies are present in the blood.

Detailed explanation-3: -Red blood cell antigens determine your blood group The antigens expressed on the red blood cell determine an individual’s blood group. The main two blood groups are called ABO (with blood types A, B, AB, and O) and Rh (with Rh D-positive or Rh D-negative blood types).

Detailed explanation-4: -B+ (B positive) if you have B and rhesus antigens. B− (B negative) if you have B antigens but don’t have rhesus antigens. AB+ (AB positive) if you have A, B and rhesus antigens. AB− (AB negative) if you have A and B antigens but don’t have rhesus antigens.

Detailed explanation-5: -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.
