An individual with type A blood is not compatible with an individual with type B blood because, they have opposing antibodies. If a transfusion were to occur, the individual may die as a result of the white blood cells attacking the foreign antibody.

∙ 13y agoI didn't know that blood types could be negative and positive, but I'll give you the best answer I can. First of all, if you don't think my answer is correct, then look it up on Google, but here's my best. There are four types of blood: A, B, AB, and O. A can receive A and O blood types because it has factors that do not deal well with B. The reason is very scientific, but I don't have exact details here. But here is the chart:
A- A, O
B- B, O
AB- A, B, AB, O
O- O
The answer to your question is because O has factors that expell A and B and AB blood, so if you need a blood transplant and your blood type is O, then they had better have O blood.
