O blood types are also Universal donors, while AB blood types are Universal receivers, so you can say that O blood types are supposed to be really generous in nature. (I guess ^_^)frostweaver said:O type... which is the best type around as it is rather compatible with a few other blood types as well...
frosty is an O?yeah I guess they are naturally generous. ;p allele? a word I don?t hear too often outside of school. o.o;Purin said:Common? ^_^;; I thought that it was rare.
According to this genetics lesson I had at school, O blood type characteristic are recessive allele. If a person has one O and one A, he will be a heterozygous A blood type.(Since A is a dominant allele) So for all O blood types, your parents must have given one O blood type characteristic each to you.

Because of this, sometimes I wished I had O blood type, but I guess it can't be helped because of my parents' blood type...
Sorry I forgot ;P You guys are having your holidays while I'm going back to school in about a week.frostweaver said:don't remind me of "allele"... now you just reminded me of the "welcome back from Christmas ok get your butt into your desk and write this stupid biology exam!" mood x_x
O can give to anyone else but the ABs (sorry Keleri but don't ask me to help you ;p)... but O themselves can only receive from other Os... So if I'm in some deep trouble Cosmos I'm coming to you... ;p
