A person has type A antigen on RBC and anti-B antibodies in plasma. He can receive blood from a person with blood group:
1. | A and O | 2. | AB, A, B and O |
3. | B and O | 4. | Only O |
Which of these statements about the ABO blood group is NOT true?
1. | A person with type O blood can donate blood to individuals with type A, B, AB, or O blood types. |
2. | Transfusions should be made considering the plasma of the donor and the erythrocytes of the patient (recipient). |
3. | A person with type A blood should not receive a transfusion from someone with type AB blood. |
4. | A person with type O blood has both the A and B antigens. |
What is true for the blood Type O?
1. | It is universal donor because it has neither anti-A antibodies nor anti-B antibodies circulating in the plasma. |
2. | It is universal donor because it has neither antigen A nor antigen B on its RBCs. |
3. | It is universal recipient because it has neither anti-A antibodies nor anti-B antibodies circulating in the plasma. |
4. | It is universal recipient because it has neither antigen A nor antigen B on its RBCs. |
Statement I: | ABO grouping is based on the presence or absence of three surface antigens on the RBCs namely A, B and O. |
Statement II: | Rh grouping is based on the presence or absence of the type of antibody present in the plasma. |
1. | Statement I is correct; Statement II is correct |
2. | Statement I is incorrect; Statement II is incorrect |
3. | Statement I is incorrect; Statement II is correct |
4. | Statement I is correct; Statement II is incorrect |
Statement I: | People who are blood type O have both anti-A and anti-B antibodies present in their plasma. |
Statement II: | People who are blood type AB do not produce either anti-A or anti-B antibodies. |
1. | Anti-A and anti-B antibodies are present in the plasma |
2. | The absence of A and B antigens on the red cells |
3. | The presence of both A and B antigens on the red cells |
4. | The presence of anti-A and anti-B antigens on the red cells |
Assertion(A): | Individuals with type AB blood are universal recipients for blood transfusions. |
Reason(R): | They possess neither A nor B antigens on their red blood cells. |
1. | Both (A) and (R) are True and (R) is the correct explanation of (A). |
2. | Both (A) and (R) are True but (R) is not the correct explanation of (A). |
3. | (A) is True but (R) is False. |
4. | (A) is False but (R) is True. |
An Rh –ve person, when exposed to Rh +ve blood:
1. | will form antibodies against the Rh antigen |
2. | will be unaffected |
3. | will form antibodies against the Rh antigen only on second exposure |
4. | will receive anti Rh antibodies from the donor |
To prevent eryhtroblastosis fetalis in future pregnancies:
1. | Anti-Rh Immunoglobulins must be given to Rh –ve mothers at the time of each delivery |
2. | Anti-Rh Immunoglobulins must be given to new born at the time of each delivery |
3. | Rh Antigens must be given to new born at the time of each delivery |
4. | Anti Antigens must be given to Rh –ve mothers at the time of each delivery |
