Answer:

Having a sickle cell disease crisis would result in:

- <u>A reduced red blood cell count because the protein called hemoglobine S that causes the anemia, produces sickle cells and changes them for the red blood cells.</u>

- <u>The elevated white blood cells would elevatge, in order to defend themselves from this foreing protein, that may come from the sickle cells.</u>

<u>- The reduction of the hematrocrit level is due to the low count on red blood cells. The hemoglobin is the protein withing the red blood cells. Since it is reduced the hemoglobin with be reduced also. </u>

Explanation:

Anemia due to sickle cell dissease is characterized by: a low count on red blood cells, as the sickle cells grow the less red blood cells are. There is also a reduction on the hematocrit which is the protein in the red blood cells. The elevated white cells would be fighting the foreing cells for protection.

A doctor determines that a fetus is in a head down position and that the lungs are fully developed. when might this happen?
Arlecino [84]
I'm going to say third trimester for the reason that when most baby's are born their heads come out first in most cases. For the most part, they travel down the birth canal head first. If that doesn't happy the doctor tries to position the baby so that it won't be a breached birth meaning the legs come out first. By the head coming out first the baby is able to have an air supply where as with a breached birth that doesn't happen.


Hopefully this helped and good luck.
