Answer:

b) blastic red blood cell (RBC).

Explanation:

In excess of 340 blood group antigens have now been described that vary between individuals. Thus, any unit of blood that is nonautologous represents a significant dose of alloantigen. Most blood group antigens are proteins, which differ by a single amino acid between donors and recipients. Approximately 1 out of every 70 individuals are transfused each year (in the United States alone), which leads to antibody responses to red blood cell <u>(RBC) alloantigens</u> in some transfusion recipients. When alloantibodies are formed, in many cases, RBCs expressing the antigen in question can no longer be safely transfused. However, despite chronic transfusion, only 3% to 10% of recipients (in general) mount an alloantibody response. In some disease states, rates of alloimmunization are much higher (eg, sickle cell disease). For patients who become alloimmunized to multiple antigens, ongoing transfusion therapy becomes increasingly difficult or, in some cases, impossible. While alloantibodies are the ultimate immune effector of humoral alloimmunization, the cellular underpinnings of the immune system that lead to ultimate alloantibody production are complex, including antigen consumption, antigen processing, antigen presentation, T-cell biology.

<h3>What is pancreatic cancer ?</h3>

However, as the pancreatic cancer progresses and spreads, upper abdominal pain frequently begins to manifest, occasionally moving to the back. Following a meal or lying down, the pain might get worse. Jaundice, nauseousness, appetite loss, weight loss, exhaustion, sluggishness, and depression are some additional symptoms that could exist.

  • Known risk factors for pancreatic cancer include smoking, diabetes, chronic pancreatitis, or inflammation of the pancreas, a family history of the disease, and a few genetic syndromes. Another contributing factor might be carrying extra weight that is unhealthy for your body.

One of the core symptoms of post-traumatic stress disorder (PTSD) is intrusive memory: disturbing, unwanted memories of the trau
SpyIntel [72]

Answer:

The onset, and treatment of PTSD is no easy matter. In order for such a disorder to appear, which is later expressed with tremendous peaks of stress, crisis, behavioral problems, panic disorders, anxiety disorders, and many more debilitating conditions, a person must have experienced an event, or circumstance, that traumatically negatively impacted the correct psychological and emotional processes of the mind. In these patients, one the most common situations is that panic attacks and anxiety peaks happen particularly when the traumatic event, moment, or circumstance is remembered, and they are very good at remembering not just the moment itself, but all elements that surrounded that trauma. Also, they are able to make really clear connections and associations between those events and normal events in life that, when they appear, trigger the defensive responses of the mind.

The idea of administering a patient with PTSD with medication that would stop memory formation shortly after a traumatic event would not be a good idea simply because while the drugs focus on the chemical processes involved in memory formation, this procedure ignores that memory is much more than just chemicals in the brain. This has been show time and time again in research. Even with strong medication that basically generates amnesia, or trauma to the brain that may cause amnesia, it has been seen, and science cannot yet fully explain how, these patients may have partial, or total recovery of memories. And because the process of memory formation is still so misunderstood, and not all the factors involved are completely known, simply administering a drug that would stop the hormones that are believed to play a role in memory formation could become more of a problem for the patient. Also it is not being considered that amnesia causes even more stress in patients, as somehow the brain still recognizes that there is information present, but cannot simply bring it to concious awareness.

Principles of management
oksian1 [2.3K]

<u>Behavior of Jack, the manager:</u>

Jack is the manager, he does have the authority to correct Samantha but it is also his responsibility to make Samantha comfortable. He could have explained the situation to her calmly and make her understand the problem.

He failed to some extent but he could rectify the mistake by apologizing and providing Samantha a clear explanation about how she can improve her performance. If Samantha does go to the PR and reports Jack, both of them leave the problem unsolved indicating lack of proper communication.

A manager should be able to interact well with their workers and make them see the benefits for the company and their personal interests and then invest their effort into better performance.
