Question

An individual with type 0 blood receives a transfusion of type AB blood. As a result of this transfusion: Ans choice. A: type 0 blood will agglutinate. B: no harm will come to the AB red blood cells. C: type AB plasma will clot. D: type AB red blood cells will agglutinate

Answer 1

ANSWER: A.type O blood will agglutinate

EXPLANATION:

First we want to know that there is no antigens present on the RBC membrane of O type blood but there is both antibodies present in the plasma  which are Anti-A and Anti-D

As the vice-versa AB type blood has both A and B antigens but there is no antibodies present in the plasma

So,agglutination occurs when there is antigen in the presence of suitable antibody cause agglutination

The blood group AB contains both antigens when it is transfused to the blood group O which contains both antibodies causes agglutination,which means type O blood will agglutinate
