blood types
Mixing incompatible blood types can result in what reaction
aggultenation reaction is when the red blood cells connect together to form clumps much like large clots these can be fatal
The parents' blood types were A and B . The blood group of any of their children could ONLY be: a. Group A only b. Group B only c. Group O only d. Group A or B only e. Group AB, A, B, or O
all types possible
Sometimes a newborn inherits its RH from its father and the baby is + while the mother is -.
This occurence is called Rhesus disease and requires the babies blood be transfused or the mothers antibodies for RH+ will attack her own child! (some mothers are given an anti antibody serum to stop her antibody development when exposed to Rh+ blood)
When you are Type A or B you are gentically profiled by being. either..
Type AA/AO or BB/BO
Blood transfusion chart
Type O- can receive only O- Type O+ can receive O- & O+ Type A- can receive O- & A- Type A+ can receive O+ & O-, A+ & A- Type B- can receive O- & B- Type B+ can receive O+ & O-, B+ & B- Type AB- can receive O-, A-, B-, AB- Type AB+ can receive both A+-, B+-, AB+-, O+-
The blood type is determined by the
presence of antigens on the surface of red blood cells
Plasma
the (55%) fluid portion of blood, obtained by centrifuging a sample of whole blood
Type AB is know as
the universal recipient because it can recieve all blood types A. AB, B and O
if someone with RH- blood recieves a transfusion with someone with RH+ blood
they can develope antibodies (anti RH antibodies) that attack red blood cells
It is important to learn about blood types
to avoid serious complications when blood is transfused
Type A blood has the
type A antigen on the surface of its blood cell, it also contains the anti-b antibody in its plasma
Type AB blood has the
type AB antigen on the surface of its blood cell, it also DOES NOT contain the anti-A antibody or anti-B antibody in its plasma
Type B blood has the
type B antigen on the surface of its blood cell, it also contains the anti-A antibody in its plasma
type A blood can receive
types A and O
type B blood can receive
types B and O
If I am type AB- and receive AB+ will I die?
yes, The RH factor will cause the blood cells to clump or explode.
The parents' blood types were AB and O. The blood group of any of their children could ONLY be: a. Group A only b. Group B only c. Group O only d. Group A or B only e. Group AB, A, B, or O
(A,B) , Not possible children (O)
The parents' blood types were AB and A. The blood group of any of their children could ONLY be: a. Group A only b. Group B only c. Group O only d. Group A or B only e. Group AB, A, B, or O
(A,B,AB) . No type O possible (not your child #howmyamazonprimedeliveriesendedmymarriage.)
RH positive blood can receive
Both RH positive and negative blood
The rarest blood type is blood type ____
AB negative
If I am Type B- and receive O negative will I die?
No
If i am type A+ and I receive type A negative will I die?
No
In an absolute emergency anyone can receive which blood type?
O negative
Most common blood type
O positive
AB negative is the universal donor of what?
Plasma
type O known as the universal donor because it can donate to all of the other blood groups but
can only receive type O
Type O Blood
contains neither A or B antigen on the surface of its blood cell, but contains bot anti-a and anti-B antibody in its plasma
Red Blood Cell can also contain the RH antigen (antigen D)
if an RH antigen is present the blood is RH positive if no RH antigen is present it is RH negative
if an RH- mom has an RH+ baby, if the blood mixes at birth mom can develope antibodies against RH+ blood. so if mom has a second pregnancy with an RH+ baby what happens?
moms antibodies could attack the babies red blood cells this is called Hemolytic disease of the newborn.
RH negative blood can receive
only Rh negative blood
