Hi there.
00:03
Let's go ahead and discuss blood type groups.
00:07
Blood groups are referred to as the abo blood type system, or blood groups, the abo blood groups.
00:18
But let's look at what that means.
00:23
A and b are both antigens.
00:27
There are two different antigens that can be found on the surface of red blood cells.
00:38
And antigens are of course things, or molecules that stimulate our immune system.
00:47
Foreign antigens in our body produce antibodies that will attack those antigens.
00:54
So based upon these antigens, let's see what types of blood we can get.
01:00
So to represent a antigens, i'm going to use a little red circle.
01:06
To represent the b antigens, i will use.
01:11
Use a little blue circle.
01:15
All right, so let's look at the four types of blood cells we can get with the system.
01:24
People with type a blood have the type a antigens on each of their blood cells.
01:35
So this would be type a blood.
01:38
Those with type b blood are going to have type b antigens.
01:50
And this would give you type b blood...
