The A and B antigens are present on the red cells of an AB patient. H antigen is a precursor to the ABO antigens.

An individual with type AB blood will demonstrate the complete absence of which of the following antigen sites?

This was a case of severe iron deficiency treated with red cell transfusions and iron supplement.

The condition most likely associated with the peripheral blood picture in the photograph is:
