Solution

The correct option is A antigens

Antigens are proteins present on the surface of RBCs which give rise to different blood groups.

Blood group is determined based on whether antigen A, B or both A and B are present on the red blood cells.

If neither A nor B antigens are present on the red blood cells, it results in the O blood group.
