Verified by Experts

The correct Answer is:
C
Persons with blood group 'O' (with no antigens on RBCs) are known as universal donors as they can donate blood to any person of any blood group of ABO system. Thus the blood group of the donor must be 'O' which can be safely donated to the patient as the patient's body will not produce any antibody against the person's blood.
