Answer:

The tissue typing is a blood test that matches the number of antigens on the surface of recipients and donor blood surface. The main aim of matching a tissue of donor kidney with the person who is seeking transplantation is the identification of a Human Leukocyte Antigen. It is a marker that tells the possibility of the organ to accept organs from another person body.

If the tissue type of the donor and the recipient do not match then the body immune system identifies it as foreign tissue and try to kill it or reject it. That is why tissue typing is done to prevent rejection after transplantation.

Temka [501]

There have be found some fossils of ancient remains over the years. What the fossils from Atapuerca revealed about the hominins living in Europe at this time is below:

  • The Skull is known to show Interbreeding that took place with neandertals and their relatively healthy population.

  • The Fragment shows that there was a possibility of cannibalism in that area.

It shows that possible cannibalism took place as there were Cutmarks on various hominin bones found at Atapuerca mirror.

The relatively healthy population was found out through the study of the dentition of the Atapuerca hominins by anthropologists. It gave them a view into their diet and overall health.

The interbreeding with the Neandertals was shown through the Nuclear DNA that was gotten from bones and teeth of bones found at Sima de los Huesos
