A person whose red blood cells agglutinate with anti-B antibodies BUT NOT anti-A antibodies is type AB.

<h3>What is an agglutinate?</h3>

Agglutination is the process by which specific antibodies to antigenic components on the surface of red blood cells or inert particles (direct agglutination) or to antigenic components adsorbed or chemically attached to red blood cells or inert particles produce clumps of cells or inert particles (passive hemagglutination and passive agglutination, respectively).

When antibodies on one RBC attach to the antigen on another RBC, a process known as agglutination, globular to amorphous, grape-like aggregates of RBCs are formed. RBC agglutination supports immune-mediated hemolytic anemia when it is present (IMHA). The majority of IMHA instances do not exhibit agglutination, but when it does, immunoglobulin M (IgM) is the most frequently implicated because of its pentavalent nature. Agglutination, however, might be brought on by a very thick IgG antibody coating of the RBC membranes. Agglutination is typically regarded as IMHA's diagnostic sign.

Bad White [126]

Answer:

Those senses are sight, smell, hearing, taste, and touch. We see with our eyes, we smell with our noses, we listen with our ears, we taste with our tongue, and we touch with our skin. Our brain receives signals from each of these organs, and interprets them to give us a sense of what's happening around us.

For taking bath, water at 40⁰C is required. Calculate the mass of cold water at 15⁰C which is to be added in 60 Kg water at 100⁰

MrRa [10]

Answer:

Energy added to cold water, E1

E1 = m•Cp•ΔT = 6 x 4.187x(42-20) = 6x4.187x22

Energy lost by hot water, E2:

E2 = X(CpΔT) = X x 4.187 x (75-42) =X x 4.187 x 33

So, since E1 = E2

6x4.187x22 = X x 4.187 x 33

X = 6x22/33 = 4.0kg

So the mass of the hot water added to the 6kg of cold water is 4.0kg
