PART H ASSESSMENTS Examine figure 34.6. The figure contains test results for both ABO type and Rh type performed in this laboratory exercise. Observe whether clumping (agglutination) occured to answer the questions. FC Anti-A serum Anti-B serum Anti-D serum Blood only (control) FIGURE 34.6 Blood test results adding anti-A serum, anti-B serum, and anti-D serum to separate drops of blood. An unaltered drop of blood is shown as a control; it does not indicate any clumping (agglutination) reaction. image Source/Getty Images 1. This individual has ABO type 2.

Step 1
To determine the ABO type of the individual, we need to look at the reactions with the anti-A and anti-B serums. - If the blood sample clumps (agglutinates) with the anti-A serum, it indicates the presence of A antigens on the red blood cells. - If the blood Show more…
