Detailed explanation-1: -Those with O positive blood can only receive transfusions from O positive or O negative blood types.
Detailed explanation-2: -Patients with O-positive blood can receive blood transfusions from other O-positives or O-negative donors.
Detailed explanation-3: -O negative blood is often called the ‘universal blood type’ because people of any blood type can receive it. This makes it vitally important in an emergency or when a patient’s blood type is unknown.
Detailed explanation-4: -But it is technically possible for two O-type parents to have a child with A or B blood, and maybe even AB (although this is even more unlikely). In fact, a child can get almost any kind of blood type if you consider the rule-breaking exceptions.
Detailed explanation-5: -A person who is blood type O has to be genetically OO (receiving a gene that codes for neither A nor B from one parent and a gene that codes for neither A or B from another parent). The possible blood types of the parents include OO, AO, and BO.
