an ABO incompatibility reaction, your immune system attacks the new blood cells and destroys them. If you have type AB blood, you have both A and B antigens. This means you're a universal recipient and you can receive any type of blood. ... The two samples of blood are then mixed and watched for a reaction.

Step-by-step explanation:

An ABO incompatibility reaction occurs when we receive the wrong type of blood during a blood transfusion. Four main types of blood groups are A, B, AB, and O. Our immune system will produce antibodies against any blood antigen. That is A blood creates antibodies against B antigens. A person with type A blood receiving a transfusion of type B or AB blood have an ABO incompatibility reaction. An ABO incompatibility reaction system attacks the new blood cells and kills them. you have type AB blood, you have both A and B antigens, which means you are a universal recipient and you can receive any type of blood. you can donate blood to other people who have type AB Blood group. You have type O blood, which has no antigens, you are a universal donor. You can give your blood to anyone, but you can only receive type O blood.
