1. What you will learn today... There are four blood types: A, B, AB, and O O blood type is called the “universal donor” while AB blood type is the “universal recipient” Your blood cells are marked with antigens (agglutinogens) that label what blood type they are Antibodies (agglutinins) are present in A, B, and O blood types; therefore, the antibodies will attack other blood types by clumping the blood—a reaction called agglutination

2. Blood Type Lab

4. Type B

5. Type O

6. Type A

7. Blood Types have markers called antigens...

8. Red Blood Cells also have antibodies...

9. How does this apply to blood transfusions?

10. What happens if wrong blood types are mixed? Agglutination

12. Let’s play the blood type game…blood For each patient record: 1.Their blood type. 2.The types of blood they can safely receive during a transfusion.

13. Erthyroblastosis fetalis

15. How are blood types determined? By genetics... PhenotypeGenotype AAA, AO BBB, BOAB OOO
