Frozen red blood cells that have been thawed, deglycerolized and reconstituted in an open system must be used within 24 hours.

Cryopreservation of Red blood cells (RBCs) can be done with a long time span of usability of 10 years. Glycerol safeguards RBCs during freezing and defrosting, yet it can cause hemolysis if it is not washed off or eliminated before transfusion. When a unit has been deglycerolized, the shelf life of RBCs in an open system is only 24 hours, bringing about sporadic utilization of Frozen RBCs from the outset of the procedure or in close system cases it is up to 14 days.

Frozen red blood cells that have been thawed, deglycerolized and reconstituted in an open system must be used within 24 hours.

The classical way of preserving the blood cells is to store them at low temperatures. The phenomenon by which the red blood cells are frozen and defrosted is called cryopreservation. This process requires the use of glycerol to safeguard the RBCs from damage. The glycerol is washed off prior to transfusion to avoid hemolysis. After removal of glycerol, the shelf life of RBCs in case of an open system is only for 24 hours. This creates the need of immediate use of the frozen RBCs. However, in case of close system, the RBC utilization period is up to 14 days.

Which of the following statements is true? Parasites benefit their hosts. Parasitism causes both the parasite and host to adapt
marshall27 [118]
Parasites benefit their hosts is the true statement. Parasitism is a symbiotic relationship in which one organism (the parasite) benefits from another organism and this other organism is harmed by the parasite.
The others aren't true because:
- the organism that is harmed doesn'y adapt and evolve it still is vulnerable
- it is a fact that parasites change from hosts
- phoresy is an association between two species in which one transports the other. This does not include killing the host (is possible, but it is not a condition under which you can call something a phoresy).

Answer:

The correct answer is the growth of the offspring to adulthood.

Explanation:

A life cycle is illustrated as the stages of development, which take place during the lifetime of an organism. A life cycle ceases with the death of an organism. Generally, the animals and plants go through three fundamental stages in their life cycles, beginning as a seed or fertilized egg, developing into an undeveloped juvenile, and eventually turning into an adult.  

During the stage of adulthood, a species will reproduce, forming a new generation. A life cycle can constitute more than three fundamental stages on the basis of the species. For example, the life cycle of a human being comprises five main stages.
