Answer:

The correct answer is: autology.

Step-by-step explanation:

Hello!

Let's solve this!

When the patient is the same donor who donates their blood, this type of transfusion is called an autologous blood transfusion.

This type of transfusion is the one with the lowest risk; lower risk of disease transmission and contraindications.

We conclude that the correct answer is: autology (autologous blood transfusion).
