• A. A
• B. AB

Answer 1

The correct option is B AB

The ABO blood group system consists of 4 types of blood group – A, B, AB, and O and is mainly based on the presence or absence of antigens on RBC and antibodies in the plasma. A person with blood group AB has Antigen A and Antigen B on RBC and no antibodies in plasma hence they are universal recipients i.e Persons with ‘AB’ group can accept blood from persons with AB as well as the other groups of blood.

So, the correct answer is 'AB'.
