Question

Quizplus · Accepted Answer

A person with O type blood lacks both A and B red blood cell antigens, making their blood compatible with those with A, B, AB, or O blood types. They may have anti-A and anti-B antibodies in their plasma, but not anti-O antibodies. HLA and MHC antigens are separate from blood type antigens and not directly related to blood compatibility testing.
