There’s one thing they neglected to mention: it’s that O, although recessive, stays in your body if one of your parents transferred it to you. Therefore if for example your parents are O and B, you become B but still have the O gene. Therefore you can pass on an O gene even if you’re an A or B. That’s why the O blood type hasn’t become extinct. edit: to everyone saying it’s the definition of heredity/recessive gene, you’re absolutely right and I get it, I’m just trying to clear this up for those unaware :)

Whats your overall grade?

As someone with an AB- blood type, I am always annoyed when in fiction there a plot line in which someone is in deep peril because they have the rare AB- blood type and need a transfusion, but a match is hard to find because of the rarity of AB-, when, in fact, even though AB- is the rarest blood type, finding a match is the easiest since someone with type AB- is a universal recipient.

@moonbeam2062

2 жыл бұрын

You are correct! Specifically, type AB+ is the universal recipient for 'all' red blood cell transfusions of any ABO type, both negative and positive. Type AB- can receive all negative red blood cell transfusions of any ABO type (as per information from the Red Cross) but not positive types. Whereas, type O- can only receive type O- red blood cell transfusions. (Type O+ can receive type O+ or Type O- red blood cell transfusions but nothing else). But what few people know is that just the opposite is true with 'plasma' donations. Type AB blood is the universal donor for plasma because it contains no antibodies that would attack the antigens of other blood types.. Type O blood on the other hand is not a good candidate for plasma donations because of the anti-A & B antibodies it contains. Only type O recipients would be compatible with plasma from a type O plasma donor. Type AB blood is in big demand for Plasma donations these days!

@@NicksStuff If you're type O, then yes you can receive pretty much any plasma from any blood type plasma donor. It's basically reverse logic of red blood cell blood donors. Because you already have anti-A and anti-B antibodies in your plasma then there's no conflict with the antibodies in any other ABO type plasma. By the way, in case you don't know (or maybe you do know), after someone donates "whole blood", it is put through a process where the plasma is separated from the red blood cells! (Plasma has a clear slightly yellowish look after its separated.) So, when someone gets a blood transfusion, they are actually getting just the red blood cells without the plasma. Also, plasma donations are used for slightly more specific purposes than a general blood donations. The most common uses of plasma donations include individuals who have experienced severe trauma, burn or shock, adults or children with cancer, and people with liver or clotting factor disorders. Plasma supplies necessary blood volume needed to restore blood pressure and volume status, as well as restore electrolyte levels. Also, it can be used in an emergency situation during trauma care when there’s not enough time to test blood type prior to a transfusion.

You guys are slow he meant his type is B+

I'm a biology teacher and the animation at 0:47 and 2:34, is misleading-- a white blood cell attaching itself to a red blood cell is not what occurs. A better animation would be the white blood cell just passing along, ignoring the red blood cell. The white blood cells shouldn't "notice" the red blood cells-- anything they notice, gets destroyed. What the animation looks like is "agglutination" which is bad-- it's what happens when let's say, a person receives the wrong type of blood. Antibodies will attach to multiple foreign blood cells and cause clotting. Usually any attachment of a white blood cell to another cell, is usually what happens before that cell is destroyed, like macrophages. At least that's my understanding and perhaps I'm reading into that animation incorrectly. Other than that, fantastic video. I've taught my students about blood type and genetics and they were fascinated. So much that my 3rd year teaching biology, I started doing blood typing labs. My students loved learning about blood type and were excited to know their own, even if that meant having to bleed in class. :)

Noah Williams White blood cells actually have specific receptors (binding sites for surface proteins and antigens) for foreign material. This means that red blood cells which display self antigens will not be able to bind with the white blood cell and the cell will ignore them. However, if the white blood cell encounters foreign material with foreign antigens that match its receptors, it will attack and stimulate B cells to produce antibodies against the invading pathogen.

This Video is slightly incomplete:Two parents with B blood type can produce a child with either B or O blood type.

I would like to add a few things to this video: RH negative mothers will make Anti-D when they have a RH positive fetus if there is a bleed, that is why Rhogam is given to RH negative women, to prevent Anti-D from forming. Also, there are different blood group systems that have likely developed as a preventative measure. For example, the Duffy system has a combination that likely developed because it provided better protection against Malaria.

00:44 for the brief off-topic thing you had in mind yes, but for the on-topic discussion you were in the middle of, you made a HUGE HUGE mistake by presenting the antigen as being something to which the white cell binds to, therefore not having an immune reaction. Nothing further from the truth. If it were so, they wouldn't be antigens, they'd be self-antigens. You forgot to mention that those antibodies (which are found in the plasma) are the opposite of the antigen. So for example, type A has A antigens and anti-B antibodies, type B has B antigens and anti-A antibodies, type AB has both A and B antigens and no antibodies, type 0 has no antigens and both anti-A and anti-B antibodies. That's why the immune system doesn't attack its own blood because it DOES NOT bind to it, since it's different and only attacks "opposite" blood types as I described above. I know what you meant to say, you just said it almost the opposite, which can be devastatingly confusing for a noobie :)

Very well done. Two small notes, incompatible blood would agglutinate and hemolyzes as result of action by the immune system and hemolytic disease of the new born is generally a potential issue in the second and subsequent pregnancy , if care ( the administration of RohGAM ) is not given during the first pregnancy. It can happen if the mother was sensitized either by blood transfusion or a spontaneous abortion that went unrecognized, miscarriage or termination of pregnancy or fetal bleed but it is rare. Although not as common it can also involve the ABO and other antigens within the Rh system an other antigen like Kell etc. I realize this my be a little beyond the intended scope of this video, that said, this and other reasons should make clear the need for prenatal care.

@@brianwesley28 good morning thanks for your input, I'm kinda aiming towards my blood doing its own thing because I can look at someone who is sick and catch it, yet my body heals rapidly and I've never broken a bone, never had a bloody nose, had both my children naturally and can endure an almost unnatural amount of pain, I've played football in school, I've been in a BMX bike accident where I slid all the way down a steep back road hill into traffic sliding under a trailer truck I mean the list goes on, but I always heal faster than anyone I know they all think I'm from a different breed that I was switched at the hospital lol but I genuinely feel like it's this blood phenomenon seriously, I don't usually talk about it because people are scared of the unknown and hate 2 admit the fact that the earth and everything on changes, and evolves. There's more to this life then we know and probably will not understand in our life time but if I can help someone else who feels like this and can relate then I'm ok with that, because for once in my life after reading everyone's posts I NO LONGER FEEL ALONE LIKE AN OUTCAST. so Brian its been fun chatting take care of yourself

great job. that was informative. the world knows a little more, today.

This helped me understand sooo much better thank you!! I'm a visual learning so the animations helped 100%

Do a search on the "Bombay blood phenotype" - a very interesting situation for the person with that type!

I just wanna point out, just because it's recessive doesn't mean it's not common. My father is Blood Type A while my mom is Blood Type O. And all of my siblings (including me) are Blood Type O.

I know this is 6 years old but for new people reading: technically your dad is type AO with O being recessive. Your mom is type OO. His recessive O paired up with either of your mom’s Os and there you have it.

I would have liked to know more about the positive and negative stuff, but otherwise good job! And also for anyone who may know the answer, will everyone eventually be an AB blood type, because A and B override O?

@legerdemain444

No over time everyone will not become AB. As there is no selection pressure the numbers of A, B, AB and OO should remain constant. O is the most common blood type in the USA at 45%, followed by A at 40%, B at 11% and AB at 4%. In order to have an AB blood type you need to inherit an A and a B from both parents. So if you have AO and BO they will have a one in 4 chance of having AO, BO, AB or OO. Just because a gene is dominant, doesn't mean it will it increase in the population.

@OmnipotentO

Жыл бұрын

7 years later (lol) but no. O is just way too common and people that are A and B can still carry the O allele to pass on to their children. So their kids can be pure O, resetting the cycle, depending on the other parent.

I am blessed with AB+, good enough.

​@@johnd4348 Based on what I know from the vet shows I watch on youtube, they either have the animal store blood before surgery (if it's not an emergency and the procedure is scheduled) OR they have very large dogs with understanding owners donate regularly. If I hadn't seen it on Bondi Vet (great show for animal lovers who are interested in veterinary medicine btw) I would have never known since I've only had very tiny pets that are unable to be anesthetized. It's really cool how far pet care has advanced in the past decade. Dogs, cats and all sorts of other critters are surviving diseases that would have been lethal or deemed "not worth fixing" a scant decade ago.

Well explained thanks

So interesting. Thank you!

I love watching TED-ed videos. i learn a lot every time. but today I found it slightly misleading with some info given regarding type-O blood (B/A parents can form O kids for instance) and about white-blood cells recognition, but I'll catch up my readings to confirm my statements. Anyway keep on with the wonderful work.

What an informative and inciteful video. I cant think of a simpler way to explain it, yet I'm about to watch it all again to see if I can get it lol. Not good at biology. Never knew dogs had so many types

Very good. Thanks.

For example, maybe his mother also had a recessive O that she inherited from one of her parents making him their son. I never stated I wanted to be "edgy" that has nothing to do with this.

Universal plasma donor is AB+ too. Universal plasma recipient is O. Vice versa of whole blood.

There are alot of people being confused about their blood type especially regarding their parents. Even though One of your parents is A or B (which is the dominant) and one is O (that is recessive) that doesn't mean you will have The dominant one. It is more complicated than that but the easiest way to do it is using a punnet square. You see if you have a blood type B+ it not just B. It could be purebred and be BB or hybrid and be BO but both will still have B+. But when crossed with a blood type o that can only be OO and not BO or AO since it is a recessive allele (pardon my spelling) and will be overwrite by a dominant alelle (idk about the spelling) so by crossing it using a punnet square ( I advise you to research about how it works but it is really easy) you will likely have BO if the allele is BB and will have 50% BO and 50% OO if the allele is BB

@204lemon

so do you mean AO x OO cross and BO x OO cross lead to 50% O type blood and 50% A or B type? I understand punnett square, just clarifying your comment.

Karl Landsteiner began a study in 1902 , to determine why fatalities occurred following some blood transfusions, his findings were the incompatibility between the blood of the donor and the blood of the recipient. From this work came the Landsteiner Classification of Blood Groups which classified blood into the four types A, B, AB and O.

Just want to advocate for people to give blood donation a try, if you can. The first time can temporarily leave you a bit woozy, but for most people, their bodies get used to it quickly. All blood types have their uses-I don’t bother giving whole blood because, as an AB+, my red blood cells aren't as useful as my platelets and plasma, so I specifically stick to donating those. No matter your blood type, there's someone out there who you can help by donating. Consider giving it a try! It's one of those rare types of charity where you know what you are donating is going to someone in need-what other use would an organization have for blood products? Can't say the same about cash or even things like toy drives, sadly. The American Red Cross often offers online gift cards in exchange for your donation, which is a nice extra incentive for some people. It's really a good thing to do, if you can.

I'm O-negative. Which makes me a universal donor. This is why I am called every six months to donate. I'm happy to do do. Add to that...this video is highly simplified, and factually indiscript.
