| | Blood type - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia |
 | | The Japan blood type theory of personality is a popular belief that a person's ABO blood type is predictive of their personality, character, and compatibility with others. |  | | All species have their own blood types; however, for the most part, these have not been studied to any significant degree. |  | | The breakdown products cause acute medical illness; hence it is of vital importance that the blood types of the donor and receptor be properly matched. |

| | Excerpt from "The Complete Blood Type Diet Encyclopedia" |
 | | The blood group adaptations were a change in "human antigenicity"---a biological desire to identify with the prevailing currents of the environment. |  | | Like the environmental conditions which spawned the advent of group A, the development of blood group B was in large part a response to changes in the environment. |  | | A bacteria which for example possessed an antigen on its surface that mimicked the blood group A antigen would have a much easier time infecting a person who was group A, since that bacteria would more likely be considered "self" to the immune system of a blood group A person. |

 | | Knowing the blood types of both mother and father of the baby is very important in ensuring the health of the fetus. |  | | Your Rh type is important in pregnancy because mother-fetus blood incompatibility can occur when the mother is Rh- and the unborn baby is Rh+. |  | | This treatment is usually successful, so there is no need for a blood transfusion. |

 | | The most common blood type classification system is the ABO (say "A-B-O") system discovered by Karl Landsteiner in the early 1900s. |  | | The frequency with which blood types are observed is determined by the frequency with which the three alleles of the ABO gene are found in different parts of the world (allele frequency). |  | | Agglutinins are responsible for ensuring that only the blood cells of your blood type exist in your body. |
