Understanding Human Blood Groups and Genetics
Human blood groups are determined by the presence or absence of specific antigens and antibodies. The ABO system categorizes blood into four types (A, B, AB, O), while the Rh factor (D antigen) determines whether blood is RhD positive or negative. Blood group antigens are crucial for safe transfusio
