Which among the following blood groups has A and B antigens on RBC (Red Blood Cells) ?
[A]O
[B]B
[C]AB
[D]A
AB
Blood group AB individuals have both A and B antigens on the surface of their RBCs, and their blood plasma does not contain any antibodies against either A or B antigen. Therefore, an individual with type AB blood can receive blood from any group (with AB being preferable), but cannot donate blood to either A or B group. They are known as universal recipients.
