Depending upon the clumping reaction with anti A , anti B and anti Rh antibodies the blood types are determined.

Step-by-step explanation:

Agglutination (clumping) will occur when blood that contains the particular antigen is mixed with the particular antibody.

A+ have Agglutination with Anti-A ,Anti-Rh and No agglutination with Anti-B.

A- have Agglutination with Anti-A and No agglutination with Anti-B and Anti-Rh.

B+ have Agglutination with Anti-B Anti-Rh and No agglutination with Anti-A.

B- have Agglutination with Anti-B and No agglutination with Anti-B and Anti-Rh.

Rh+ have Agglutination with Anti-A and Anti-Rh and No agglutination with Anti-B.

Rh- have No Agglutination with Anti-A and Anti-B and Anti-Rh.
