O-type blood is used more often because it has no proteins on the blood cells so everyone can receive them. A-type blood means it has A proteins, and since you cannot introduce new proteins to blood that doesn't have it originally, A can only donate to other A's or to AB's. B-type blood can only donate to B's and AB's. However because AB-type blood has both A and B proteins, they can only donate to AB's. Because of this, they are used least often in blood transfusions.
