Solution

The correct option is D Man and rhesus monkey only
The Rh factor is a type of protein on the surface of red blood cells. People who have the Rh factor on their RBC are said to be Rh-positive. Those who do not have the Rh factor are Rh-negative. The Rhesus blood type named after the Rhesus monkey was first discovered in 1937 by Karl Landsteiner and Alexander S. Wiener. It is a factor which is present in man and Rhesus monkey only.
