AOnly the B antigen and anti-A antibodies
BA and B antigens but no antibodies
CNeither A nor B antigens but both antibodies
DOnly the A antigen and anti-B antibodies
Answer & Solution
Correct answer: B. A and B antigens but no antibodies
AB RBCs carry both A and B antigens, so plasma contains neither anti-A nor anti-B antibodies (else self-agglutination would occur).
This makes AB persons universal recipients.
