● `color{violet}("ABO grouping")` is based on the presence or absence of `color{brown}("two surface antigens")` (chemicals that can induce immune response) on the `color{violet}("RBCs")` namely `color{brown}("A and B.")`
● Similarly, the `color{violet}("plasma")` of different individuals contain two natural antibodies (proteins produced in response to antigens).
● During `color{violet}("blood transfusion")`, any blood cannot be used; the blood of a donor has to be carefully matched with the blood of a recipient before any `color{violet}("blood transfusion")` to avoid severe problems of clumping (destruction of RBC).
● From the above mentioned table it is evident that group `color{violet}("‘O’ blood")` can be donated to persons with any other blood group and hence `color{violet}("‘O’ group")` individuals are called `color{brown}("‘universal donors’.")`
● Persons with `color{violet}("‘AB’ group")` can accept blood from persons with `color{violet}("AB")` as well as the other groups of `color{violet}("blood.")`
● Therefore, such persons are called `color{brown}("‘universal recipients’")`
