Your friend has a blood type of B, but he doesn’t know what his Rh factor is. One of his parents is B-, and one is O+. Can you know for sure what his Rh factor is? Why or why not?

Blood Types

Blood transfusions are a lifesaving treatment for many Americans. Blood transfusions are needed for many reasons, including surgery, after accidents, and for patients with chronic illnesses and cancer.

Blood cannot be artificially made, so doctors rely on volunteer donations. To keep the blood supply safe, every donation is tested for blood type and checked for infectious diseases.
