Lab: Blood Typing

Question 4 • Biology - SC3209 IC

What data will you collect each time you add each serum to a patient’s blood?

Answer
A
the final color of the sample
B
whether there was a swirl pattern
C
whether the sample agglutinated
D
the number of clots formed

Explanation

When serum is mixed with a blood sample, the key observation is whether agglutination occurs—visible clumping of red blood cells. Recording this result for each serum helps identify which antibodies reacted with the patient’s blood. The correct choice is whether the sample agglutinated.
