Question 8

Match the following blood types:
-The blood type that does not form anti-A or anti-B antibodies

Accepted Answer

Blood type AB does not form anti-A or anti-B antibodies because it already contains both A and B antigens on its red blood cells.

Question 9

Match the following function with its blood cell:
-Most common type of blood cell

Accepted Answer

Erythrocytes, also known as red blood cells, are the most common type of blood cell, accounting for approximately 40-45% of the total blood volume.

Note: Platelets and leukocytes are also types of blood cells, but they are not the most common. Platelets make up less than 1% of the total blood volume, while leukocytes account for approximately 1% of the total blood volume.

Question 13

Match the following blood types:

Question 14

Match the following function with its blood cell:
-Type of cell fragment involved in hemostasis
