Answer:

The mother can carry a full-term baby with A blood type because the mother's blood does not mix with the baby's blood, so the mother's immune system does not activate attacking the baby.

Explanation:

The reason why a mother with B blood type and A antibodies in her system can carry a full-term pregnancy is thanks to the placenta. The placenta is a shared organ between the mother and the baby. Its function is to protect the baby and produce the necessary exchanges of nutrients and wastes between the maternal blood and the baby's blood. As the two types of blood are separated, and they never get in contact during pregnancy, the immune system of the mother does not recognize the baby as a treat. The mother can have A antibodies in her plasma due to a previous pregnancy where during delivery, the two types of blood mixed, also it can be due to any contact with the A blood type. When the foreign blood enters the body, the immune system forms antibodies for it.

What is meant by the genetic code being nearly universal?
Veseljchak [2.6K]

A lot of DNA is structural and doesn't pertain to any genetics while it only takes a small change to change something big. DNA mainly uses 4 different chemicals to change itself, not giving a lot of variety. Most animals share around 98% of the same dna with each other. Humans share 50% of their DNA with a banana. Pretty much everything shares the same double helix design as well. So a lot of genetic code looks similar.

The question does not provide any options, I found the options and here are the options:

<span>A) Sights often create strong emotional responses.
B) The cingulate helps you express your emotional state.
C) Emotional states can alter our blood pressure.
D) Your amygdala judges facial expressions for danger.
</span>
The correct choice is "A", " Sights often create strong emotional responses".
The sense which is more directly involved with a person’s limbic system is the sense of smell and because of that it is the sense of smell which should or is more likely to initiate emotional response.
