    A person with blood group AB is sometimes called a universal recipient because of:

    A)  The presence of antibodies

    B)  Lack of antibodies

    C)  Lack of antigens

    D)  Lack of both antigens and antibodies

    Correct Answer: C

Therefore, an individual with type AB blood can receive blood from any group (with AB being preferable), but cannot donate blood to any group other than AB. They are known as universal recipients.
