In chemical bonding theory, anantibonding orbital is a type of molecular orbital (MO) that weakens the bond between two atoms and helps to raise the energy of themolecule relative to the separated atoms. Such an orbital has one or more nodes in the bonding regionbetween the nuclei.

Answer:
BMO:-
Here wave function are added.
Electron density is more
attraction is present
Constructive interference
Doesn't have nodal plane
Energy of BMO is less
Electron placed in a BMO stabilise a molecule.
ABMO:-
Wave function is subtracted
Electron density is less
repulsion is present
Destructive interference
Have nodal plane between nuclei of bonded atom
Energy is high
Destabilizes the molecule
