Answer:

b. the blood transfusion was mismatched, and the recipient had previously been exposed to the blood group antigens of the blood transfusion.

Explanation:

Blood transfusion giving a patient blood or its equivalent product intravenously. Necessary tests are normally carried out to ensure the blood to be transfused matches and is compatible with the blood or body system of the recipient.

However when symptoms like difficulty in breathing, fever,nausea and vomiting is visible after ten transfusion then it’s obvious there was an error which involves blood transfusion being mismatched, and the recipient being previously been exposed to the blood group antigens of the blood transfusion

Answer:

b. the blood transfusion was mismatched, and the recipient had previously been exposed to the blood group antigens of the blood transfusion.

Explanation:

This incompatibility of blood groups, which leads to immune response of the recipient to recognise the donor's blood cells as antigens, and therefore attack the donor blood cells donated , causing lysis  of the blood cells, leading to low oxygen saturation in the blood and difficulty in breathing and  other complication.

<u>Excretes waste:</u> The excretion process, is done mainly by lungs (release of carbon dioxide), kidneys (elimination of excess compounds such as nitrogen) and the skin (sweat regulates temperature but also regulates the concentration of salts within the body)

<u>Nails:</u> It protects the soft tissues surrounding the distal phalanx, but it also exerts pressure over on the digits which allows more precission in the movements.

<u>Kidneys:</u> Eliminate waste from the blood and regulate body fluids, by generating urine.
