Answer:

To perform an experiment that involves extract blood from partner's finger and determining their blood type, the safety gear that should be used are gloves, to protect you from any infectious agents in the blood (option B).

Explanation:

The use of gloves -both for trained and untrained personnel- is one of the biosecurity measures implemented to avoid contact with biological products, and to prevent infections when they are contaminated.

However, although the gloves prevent direct contact with the blood, they do not prevent puncture with objects -such as needles- so the use of gloves should be accompanied by other biosafety measures to avoid accidents in the laboratory.
