Question

Quizplus · Accepted Answer

Agglutination occurs when antibodies bind to antigens on foreign blood types, causing the clumping of red blood cells. Coagulation refers to the process of blood clotting, hematopoiesis is the formation of blood cells, and alkalosis refers to a condition in which the blood pH becomes too alkaline. None of these terms are directly related to the interaction between antibodies and antigens in blood typing.
