- Blood is a fluid connective tissue composed of plasma and the formed elements. Blood is derived from the lateral plate of the mesoderm which is 4 times highly viscous than water.
- The formed elements consists of erythrocytes (RBC), leucocytes (WBC), thrombocytes (platelets).
- The difference in the blood group are categorized according to the presence of surface antigens and antibodies (in blood plasma).
- Based on the ABO blood grouping system four types of blood groups are classified namely A,B, AB or O.
- The A and B groups contain only A and B surface antigens respectively.
- The AB blood group contains both A and B surface antigens and O blood group does not contain any of the surface antigens.
- The type of blood group of a person is inherited from the parents.
- The blood groups are not compatible among themselves and a fata reaction occurs in the case of mixture of incompatible blood groups.
