Why is it necessary to match the donor's and the recipients blood before a transfusion is given

Snezhnost [94]3 years ago

It is necessary to match the donor's and the recipient's blood before a transfusion because the immune system will react badly if blood cells are not compatible. The immune system is responsible for patrolling or for guarding the circulation in the body. Without its proper function, the body will be exposed into different types of infections. 

When blood goes through the process of transfusion, the cells are treated the same way as infections or foreign invaders. When they are not compatible with the recipient the immune system will be massively activated which can cause immediate clotting systems in the blood. The results of this clotting can lead to shock, kidney failure, collapse of the circulatory system, and worst death.

I would say that active transport is the answer because it's from LOW concentration to HIGH concentrations, so it's going against the concentration gradients.

The Earth's early (primitive) atmosphere contained no
monitta

Answer:

C) Oxygen

Explanation:

As the Earth cooled, a primitive atmosphere was created by the out-gassing of early volcanoes. The early atmosphere contained no oxygen and would have been toxic to human beings, as well as most other life on Earth today.

Hope it helps!

Cells A and B are the same size and shape, but cell A is metabolically quiet and cell B is actively consuming oxygen. Oxygen wil
Anika [276]

Answer:

B because the diffusion gradient is steeper there

Explanation:

Oxygen moves in the cell through the process of diffusion which means it moves from its higher concentration towards its lower concentration. More the difference in concentration, concentration gradient will be more steeper and diffusion will take faster.

So in this case cell, B cell consumes oxygen at a faster rate because it is more metabolically active therefore as oxygen is consumed at a faster rate the concentration difference in B cell becomes high and the diffusion gradient becomes steeper so oxygen will diffuse more quickly in cell B.

6. Which of the following organelles are not involved in protein synthesis?
Tomtit [17]

Answer:

d. smooth endoplasmic reticulum

Explanation:

Organelles are structures found in inside the cell which carries out a specific function. Types of organelles include endoplasmic reticulum, Golgi body, ribosomes, nucleus etc. The function in the question is protein synthesis.

Ribosomes are the sites of protein synthesis in the cell of living organisms.

- The nucleus is involved in the synthesis of protein because it directs all the cellular processes in a cell including protein synthesis.

- Rough endoplasmic reticulum (RER) is a type of endoplasmic reticulum whose surface is attached to by ribosomes, hence, giving it its rough surface. Since ribosomes (organelle for protein synthesis) are attached to the RER, the RER are involved in protein synthesis.

- Golgi bodies are organelles that functions to package, process and sorted the proteins produced in the ribosomes.

- The smooth endoplasmic reticulum (SER) are NOT involved in the synthesis of protein because they have no ribosomes attached to their surface. Instead, they are involved in lipid synthesis.
