Answer:

Agglutination

Explanation:

Agglutination is the reaction of an antibody naturally present or produced in plasma - agglutinin - with certain antigens on the red cell membrane - agglutinogen - forming a cluster of small cell masses.

This reaction can be used to identify a person's blood type and has consequences when blood transfusions are performed. Because an individual may or may not contain antigens in their red blood cells, the agglutination process will occur when the donor's blood has an antigen that is not present in the recipient's blood. In this case, the immune system will recognize this foreign body and react by agglutinating red blood cells, leading to death.

You are working with a patient who sustained a spinal cord injury resulting in paralysis of the legs. This person has:
meriva

Answer:

A patient with a spinal cord injury that resulted in paralysis of the legs has paraplegia (option c).

Explanation:

Paraplegia consists of paralysis of the lower extremities or legs due to injuries to the spinal cord, from the dorsal vertebrae. Other causes of paraplegia include tumors and malformations that affect the spinal cord.

<u>The spinal cord provides the nerves that allow the innervation of the limbs</u>. A spinal cord injury interrupts communication between the brain and the effector (motor) muscles as well as the sensory nerves in the affected limbs, producing paralysis. When it occurs in the legs is called paraplegia.

The other options are not correct because:

    a. Hemiplegia corresponds to paralysis of upper and lower limbs on one side only.

    b. Pseudoplegia is a paralysis that is due to mental disorders such as conversion disorder, without injury to the nervous system.

    d. Dysplegia is associated with motor disorders observed in children with varying degrees of dysfunction or cerebral paralysis.
