Just remember that the RBC cell surface contains A antigen and B antigen. Similarly serum will develop antibodies against A are called as anti-A and against B are called as anti-B. If the Blood Group O has both anti a and anti b then it will become AB blood group. RBC-antigenA :A blood group RBC-antigenB: B blood group RBC-antigenA+B: AB blood group RBC-Noantigen: O blood group
