Answer 2

AB blood group is universal recipient because

Firstly it can get blood from the following blood group donors
“O” “A” “B”
As it has both antigens of A and B present on it.

Secondly it can receive blood from blood group O donors because it has no antigens present on its surface which makes them universal donors.
