Why is blood type is the universal donor?
AB isn't the universal donor, O is. AB is a universal acceptor because RBC (red blood cells) contain the A and B antigen (simply put, it is a marker on the cell) so the body accepts any blood type because it recognizes the antigens. O is the universal donor because it contains no antigens, so no immune system will attack it.
Why is blood type AB the universal donor?
