Solution

The correct answer is: Their red blood cells lack the Rh antigens.

Here's why: The Rh factor is a type of protein on the surface of red blood cells. Most people are Rh-positive, which means they have this protein. If you're Rh-negative, you do not have this protein. So, an individual who is Rh-negative does not have Rh antigens on their red blood cells.
