The universal recipient blood type can recieve any other blood type. Which blood type is the universal recipient?

46% Answer Correctly

	AB-positive
	AB
	O
	O-negative

Solution

Blood transfer is limited by the type and Rh factor of the blood. Someone who has Rh-factor negative blood cannot receive blood with a positive type but a person with Rh-factor positive type blood can receive Rh-negative blood. Type O negative blood is the universal donor because it can be given to a person with any blood type. Type AB positive is the universal recipient meaning someone with this blood type can receive any other type of blood.

In the Periodic Table of the Elements, elements in the same column belong to the same:

64% Answer Correctly

	family
	group
	period
	atomic number

Solution

The columns of the Periodic Table are called groups and all elements in a group have the same number of electrons in their outer electron shell. The group that an element occupies generally determines its chemical properties as the number of outer shell electrons establishes the way it reacts with other elements to form molecules. So, because each element has the same number of electrons in its outer shell, each has similar reactivity.
