Biology
1 answer:
ryzh [129]3 years ago
3 0

In most cases, a lung transplant is done only after all other treatments for lung failure are unsuccessful. Lung transplants may be recommended for people under age 65 who have severe lung diseases. The major risk of a lung transplant is organ rejection. This happens when your immune system attacks your donor lung as if it were a disease. Severe rejection could lead to failure of the donated lung. Other serious complications can arise from the drugs used to prevent rejection.

What would happen to<br> offspring if crossing over did<br> not occur?
Dovator [93]

Answer: If crossing over did not occur during meiosis, there would be less genetic variation within a species. ... Also the species could die out due to disease and any immunity gained will die with the individual. Two types of gametes are possible when following genes on the same chromosomes. If crossing over does not occur, the products are parental gametes. If crossing over occurs, the products are recombinant gametes.
