Marco was in a car accident and lost a significant amount of blood. The doctors knew Marco had type O blood, but due to a terrible error, Marco received blood that was type A. This caused a severe immune reaction, but luckily Marco survived. Explain why this error caused an immune reaction by discussing antigens and antibodies involved.
