21、第一篇 Types of Blood You have been badly injured in a car accident. It is necessary to give you a blood transfusion because you lost a great deal of blood in the accident. Howev er, special care must be taken in selecting new blood for you. If the blood is t oo different from your own, the transfusion could kill you. There are four basic types of blood: A, B, AB, and O. A simple test can ind icate a person’s blood type. Everybody is born with one of these four types of b lood. Blood type, like hair color and height, is inherited from parents. Because of substances contained in each type, the four groups must be transf used carefully. Basically, A and B cannot be mixed. A and B cannot receive AB, b ut AB may receive A or B. O can give to any other group; hence, it is often call ed the universal donor. For the opposite reason, AB is sometimes called the univ ersal recipient. However, because so many reactions can occur in transfusions, p atients usually receive only salt or plasma ( liquid ) until their blood can be matched as exactly as possible in the blood bank of a hospital. In this way , it is possible to avoid any bad reactions to the transfusion. There is a relationship between your blood type and your nationality. Among Europeans and people of European ancestry, about 42 percent have type A while 45 percent have type O. The rarest is type AB. Other races have different percenta ges. For example, some American Indian groups have nearly 100 percent type O. If a patient can receive type A blood,____
