Universal receivers can receive blood from
A. Group AB
B. Group O only
C. Group O, A, B, AB
D. Group A, AB

Answer 1

Hint: The universal receiver is usually a radio receiver capable of operating with various standard transmitters. In the case of home automation, this defines a radio receiver that operates with virtually every remote control on the market usually used to unlock gates, garage doors, traffic barriers, entry doors, etc.

Complete Answer:
Blood group AB people have both A and B antigens on the surface of their RCBs, and their blood plasma produces no antibodies against either A or B antigens. Therefore a person with type AB blood can receive blood from any group (with AB being preferable), but cannot donate blood to any group other than AB. they are considered to be universal receivers.

Therefore, choice C is the right answer ie., group O, A ,B, AB.

Additional Information:
- O blood groups are special in that they don’t have antigens. O negative blood is called a universal blood donor type since it is consistent with all positive blood types A, AB, B and O.
- If you have type A blood, you’ve an antigen that is special and unique to A blood.
- When you’ve a blood type B, you’ve a blood type B antigen. AB blood type indicates that both A and B blood antigens are present. It’s the rarest sort of blood.
- An individual with AB blood has all the antigens that are possible.

Note: O negative is considered as the universal donor as in case of emergency, the person who receives this blood group has the least risk of causing reaction among most of the people. For platelet transfusion, the universal blood type is AB positive. It is considered as one of the rarest blood types as only 3% of the population has this blood group. Any patent who is in need can be given with the platelets from AB+ blood type.
