The correct option is (a) Both A and R are true and R is the correct explanation of A.

Explanation:

Person with blood group AB can take blood from any other person. Blood group incompatibility is due to antigen antibody reaction. Blood group AB has no antibody and thus the antigen of the other group is not affected. On the other hand AB blood group with both A and B antigens can be given safely only to people with AB blood group.
