A person with blood group $\mathrm{ARh}^{-}$can receive the blood transfusion from which of the following types?
A. $\mathrm{BRh}^{-}$
B. $\mathrm{ABRh}^{-}$
C. $\mathrm{ORh}^{-}$
D. $\mathrm{ARh}^{-}$
E. $\mathrm{ARh}^{*}$
Choose the correct answer from the options given below :
D and E only
D only
A and B only
C and D only
Solution
The correct answer is option (4) because recipient is A blood group with $\mathrm{Rh}(-\mathrm{ve})$ antigen, hence cannot receive blood from any blood group with $\mathrm{Rh}(+\mathrm{ve}$ ) antigen and as A blood group individuals have anti-B antibodies in plasma. So, donor could be $\mathrm{O}(\mathrm{Rh}-\mathrm{ve}$ ) and $\mathrm{A}(\mathrm{Rh}-\mathrm{ve}$ ) only.
Options (1), (2) and (3) are not correct answers because $\mathrm{B}^{-}, \mathrm{AB}^{-}$and $\mathrm{A}^{+}$blood groups will lead to serve clumping reaction.
