Explanation:
Key developments in blood transfusion techniques
• Animal experiments over the years 1900-1916 gradually enabled transfusion to become the routine technique it is today. The key developments were:
• George Crile (1907) perfected the technique of transfusion from artery to vein using dogs, and described its application in 32 patients.
• Hustin (1914) showed that addition of sodium citrate could prevent blood from clotting and that citrated blood could be safely transfused into dogs.
• Richard Lewisohn (1915) determined the maximum amount of citrate that could be transfused into dogs without toxicity and thus determined the optimum concentration that could be added to blood for the best anticoagulant effect.
• Weil (1915) showed that citrated blood could be stored for 2 days and still be effective when transfused into guinea-pigs and dogs which had lost blood.
• Rous and Turner (1916) used rabbits to demonstrate that, with certain additives and proper treatment, citrated blood could be stored for 14 days and still be successfully transfused.
Through these animal experiments, the prolonged storage of blood without clotting thus became possible, so enabling the establishment of blood banks, and blood transfusion as a routine procedure.
Answer:
See explanation below.
Explanation:
Starfish, also known as sea stars, are marine organisms that belong to the Class Asteroidea. They are considered invertebrates because they lack a vertebral column. Moreover, most starfish species have five arms but some species can have up to 15!
Here are some characteristics that differentiate starfish from other organisms and make them so unique:
- Possession of tube feet.
- Most species have pedicellaria, claw-shaped structures with movable jaws.
- Radial symmetry
- They can possess from 5 to 15 arms.
- Do not possess brain.
- They can regenerate parts of their body.
Answer: (It is an endothermic reaction because energy is gained.)
It converts energy in food into a more usable form.
Answer:
Ice is not an organic molecule.
Explanation:
Organic molecules are a specific type of molecule that contain at least one carbon atom that is attached to other atoms such as Hydrogen, oxygen.
In the given question lipid,carbohydrate and nucleic contain carbon atoms that are linked together with Hydrogen atoms, oxygen atom and nitrogen atom as a result they can be categorized as organic molecule.
on the other hand ice is the solid form of water(H2O) which itself is an inorganic molecule,from that point of view ice is not an organic molecule.
Your answer is <u><em>A) Carbon-14 </em></u>
