Blood is an incredibly crucial component of your Body. Blood type, as similar to eye color and facial structure, is inherited from your parents. A blood type system may be a collection of 1 or more antigens that are under the control of one gene or a cluster of closely linked homologous genes.

Human blood groups are mainly classified into A, B, AB, and O types based on the types of antigens found on the surface of red blood cells. These antigens are often proteins, carbohydrates, glycoproteins, or glycolipids, depending on the blood type system. Every blood type has distinctive characteristics. A simple blood group test can determine your blood group type.
