Answer:

The correct answer would be it clogs the blood vessels.

Wrongly matched blood transfusion in the patient can activate his or her immune system.

The immune system produces antibodies against the red blood cells of the mismatched blood which results in the agglutination reaction.

Consequently, red blood cells and other components clump up together which eventually clogs the blood vessels of the patient.
