O
If your blood agglutinate in anti-a typing serum but not in anti-b typing serum you have this blood type
A
If your blood agglutinates in the anti-be typing serum but not the anti-a typing serum, then you have this blood type
B
If your blood agglutinates in both the anti-a taping serum and the anti-been typing serum thing you have this type of blood
AB
If your blood does not agglutinate in either of the typing serums you have this blood type
O
Universal donors have this blood type
O
A universal recipient is this blood type
AB
