Solution

The correct option is A

A and B, neither anti-A nor anti-B


Type ‘A' blood has antibodies to antigens of type 'B' and type 'B' has antibodies to antigens of type 'A'. Group 'AB' has no antibodies as the RBCs have both 'A' and 'B' surface antigens which are recognised as non-foreign proteins.
