The correct option is B Clumping of RBCs due to antigen and antibody reaction Agglutination is a term which refers to clumping of particles. This is generally used in blood grouping in reference to mixing of an antigen with its corresponding
antibody. Agglutination also occurs in cross-matching when the donor red blood cells and recipient's serum or plasma are incubated together to determine, if the blood types are incompatible.
Therefore, the correct answer is option B.
