5. Question
What makes the Bombay Blood Group unique compared to other blood groups?
CorrectAnswer:
b) It lacks the H antigen, which is the precursor to A, B, and O groupsExplanation:
• The Bombay Blood Group (hh phenotype) is a rare blood group first identified in Bombay (now Mumbai) in 1952.
• Unlike other blood groups (A, B, AB, and O), which depend on the presence of the H antigen as a precursor, individuals with the Bombay Blood Group completely lack the H antigen.
• Because of this, even if their genes carry A or B antigens, they cannot express them, leading their blood to appear as O group in standard tests but requiring only Bombay group blood for transfusion.
• This blood group is extremely rare globally but is found more frequently in India, especially in Maharashtra and some other regions.IncorrectAnswer:
