A person with type AB blood has
The Correct Answer is {"dropdown-group-1":"E"}
A. No: no A/B antigens describes type O blood, not AB.
B. Anti-A and anti-B: those are antibodies found in the plasma of type O individuals; they are not RBC antigens and are not present in type AB plasma.
C. Anti-A: anti-A are plasma antibodies found in type B blood; the question asks about RBC antigens, not antibodies.
D. Anti-B: anti-B are plasma antibodies found in type A blood; again, not RBC antigens.
E. A and B: type AB individuals have both A and B antigens on their RBC surfaces (and typically have no anti-A or anti-B antibodies in their plasma).

Correct Answer is {"dropdown-group-1":"B","dropdown-group-2":"B"}
Explanation
A. A and D: B - This option claims the person has A and Rh(D) antigens and makes anti-B antibodies. That describes someone with type A, Rh-positive blood (who would not make anti-B); it is not type B, Rh-positive.
B. B and D: A - Type B, Rh-positive individuals have B and D (Rh) antigens on RBCs and can produce anti-A antibodies.
C. A: B and D - This says the person has A antigen and makes anti-B and anti-D antibodies - incompatible with type B, Rh-positive (and anti-D is produced only after Rh sensitization in Rh-negative people).
D. B: A and D - This says the person has B antigen and makes anti-A and anti-D antibodies; a Rh-positive person with B antigen wouldn’t make anti-D (they have D).
E. A and B - This indicates AB blood (A and B antigens) - AB individuals do not make anti-A or anti-B antibodies, so this does not describe type B, Rh-positive.
