Question [CLICK ON ANY CHOICE TO KNOW THE RIGHT ANSWER]
In ABO blood typing, a person’s blood that was type B would:
A
clump with antibody-B
B
clump with antibody-A
C
clump with antibody-O
D
never clump any antibody
Explanation: 

Detailed explanation-1: -Antibodies-b (called Anti-a sera), for example, would clump red blood cells containing A-antigens (type A). Anti-b sera would clump type B blood. Clumping will occur in both sera with type AB blood and in neither sera with type O blood.

Detailed explanation-2: -A person with Type B blood will have anti-A antibodies in his or her plasma. If the plasma is mixed with Type A blood, the cells will agglutinate, or clump together, from the reaction of the Type A antigens and the anti-A antibodies.

Detailed explanation-3: -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.
