Hello. I am happy to help you out. There are a few risks for patients that have undergone an organ transplant.

<span>1) There is a risk of rejection of the transplanted organ.
2) There is also an increased risk of infection due to the immunosuppressant medications.
3) Any of the side effects of the immunosuppressant medications as previously discussed.
4) It is important to note that there is a very small risk for acquiring AIDS, Hepatitis B, other viruses, or cancer from the donor organ. Organ donors are screened very carefully for these diseases; however, on very rare occasion, they are undetectable and may be passed to the recipient.
<span>5) There is a potential for a blood transfusion due to blood loss in the operating room and related risk for the transmission of infectious diseases from a blood donor. Blood donors are screened very carefully, but there may be a rare case when a disease may be undetectable and may be passed to the recipient.

Hope that helps! :) Biology rocks!

What structural component gives arteries the ability to passively adapt to changes in blood pressures that accompany the heartbe

Andrews [41]

Answer: elastic fibers

Explanation:

Elastic fibres are the essential durable component present in mammalian connective tissueand functions to provide proper pulmonary, cardiovascular and intestinal system structure and function. Their structural function is to provide elastic recoil and resilience for the tissues.

Elastin fibers ahve two main including microfibrils and elastin containing fibrillin play a mechanical and structural role in the arteries, and their important function is to provide the tissues with resilience and elasticity.

Hence, elastic fibers helps arteries to adapt to changes in blood pressures that accompany the heartbeat.

Considering the ATP cycle, which of the following would have the most potential energy to perform work for cell activities? A. A

Mumz [18]

Answer:

ATP

Explanation:

We are well aware of the fact that ATP is considered to be the energy currency of the cell. If we talk about cell activities it needs an energy input. No doubt that H+ ions play an important role in electron transport chain step of the production of ATP, but the ultimate product which is used by the cell is ATP.

AMP and ADP are also energy sources but they contain less amount of energy as compared to ADP because in ATP there are three phosphate bonds and each bond upon breakage releases almost 7.3 kj/mol of energy. So it definitely will be more in ATP as compared to ADP and AMP.

Hope t help!

Which chemical or chemicals inhibit the activity of dnases during dna isolation?

sergij07 [2.7K]

EDTA inhibits the activity of DNase during DNA isolation process.

DNase is an enzyme which degrades DNA using divalent metal ions like Mg^{2+} . These metal ions act as cofactor for the proper functioning of DNase.

EDTA chelates the divalent metal ions and thus does not allow DNase to access them.

Therefore in this way DNA is prevented from degradation during its isolation.
