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

Biology

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.

How would a mistake in transcribing the DNA message affect your ability to catch the killer?
mel-nik [20]

Answer: When the DNA collected on the crime scene is being analysed in the forensic lab, the results will be inconclusive, because error in DNA transcription, particularly in mRNA encoding leads to inheritable phenotype change by reprogramming the transcriptional network, without changing the DNA. Transcription errors are brief with no long-term consequences. Due to mRNA being short-lived and the erroneous proteins are degraded. A decrease in transcription accuracy triggers cellular identity change.

Explanation: This is called epimutation, a heritable modification that results in the change of gene expression, but not the DNA sequence. Epimutation is not associated with DNA mutation, but is associated with the loss or gain of DNA methylation or other heritable changes of the chromatin.
