Get Blood Type Worksheet 1 Answer Key 2020-2025

Ways to find out your blood type The easiest way to determine your blood type is to look at your birth certificate. But if you don't have access to that information, you do have some other options. Ask your doctor. They may have a record that includes your blood type.

Ask Your Healthcare Provider If you have access to an online patient portal, you might be able to see your blood type when you log in. If you can't get ahold of your provider or if they can't find it, you can also try asking the hospital's medical records department.

Why are blood types not put on birth certificates? Start with the fact that in the USA, blood type is not obtained on every newborn. If the mother is Rh negative, it will be done to minimize the possibility of future pregnancy complications due to Rh incompatibility; it's also done if she is O positive.

Most of this is pretty straightforward. Two O's make O blood type and an A and a B make AB.

Two antigens on your red blood cells determine type: A and B. When only the A antigen is present, you are blood type A. Same is true for the B antigen and blood type B. When both are present, that is called blood type AB, and when neither are present, it's called blood type O.

A person who is blood type O has to be genetically OO (receiving a gene that codes for neither A nor B from one parent and a gene that codes for neither A or B from another parent). The possible blood types of the parents include OO, AO, and BO.

Most Rare Blood Type AB-negative – 1 % B-negative – 2 % AB-positive – 4 % A-negative – 6 % O-negative – 7 % B-positive – 11 % A-positive – 32 % O-positive – 40 %

In fact, ing to the experts, most children who are O-negative have parents who are O-positive.
