Solution
It is a rare blood group also known as bombay phenotype because it is first observed in Bombay. In this blood group, the antigen present on the surface of RBC's is neither A or B, rather it has a third antigen 'H'. It is different from O blood group because in O blood group no antigen is present whereas in Oh blood group H antigen is present in (hh) homozygous condition.
