Solution

The correct option is C O
A person with blood group O does not contain any antigen but contains both anti-A and anti-B antibodies. Thus when blood with both A and B antigens are mixed with a blood type and it causes agglutination, it is O type as O type has both antibodies which will cause clumping with antigens A and B. Therefore a person with blood group O cannot receive blood from any other blood type except O
So, the correct answer is option D.
