(B) An $Rh^{	ext{-ve}}$ individual,if exposed to $Rh^{	ext{+ve}}$ blood,will develop specific antibodies against the $Rh$ antigens present on the surface of the donor's red blood cells.This immune response can lead to the destruction of the transfused blood cells (hemolysis) and cause severe complications.Therefore,it is essential to match the $Rh$ blood group before any transfusion to ensure compatibility.
