Persons of AB blood group are universal acceptors because
Question

Persons of AB blood group are universal acceptors because

A.

They can receive blood from persons of all blood groups

B.

They have no antibodies in their blood

C.

They lack antigens

D.

They have a special protein in their blood plasma that inhibits clotting

Correct option is B


Ans (b)
Sol. Explanation:
· People with AB blood group are called universal recipients because they do not have antibodies against A or B antigens in their plasma. This means they can safely receive blood from any of the other blood groups (A, B, AB, O) without causing an immune reaction.
· Option (a) is partially correct because they can receive blood from all groups, but the reason is due to the absence of anti-A and anti-B antibodies, not because of their ability to "accept" any blood type inherently.
· Option (c) is incorrect, as AB blood type individuals have both A and B antigens on their red blood cells, making them distinct from other blood types.
· Option (d) is incorrect because the explanation in (b) is accurate.
