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.

Within a gymnosperm megasporangium, which of the following developmental sequences is correct, assuming fertilization occurs? Gr
yan [13]

Within a gymnosperm megasporangium, the following developmental sequences that are correct, assuming fertilization occurs is: megaspore, female gametophyte, egg cell, sporophyte embryo. The last Option (Option D) is correct.

In gymnosperm megasporangium, the meiotic division produces four haploid megaspores from a single cell, three of which generally degenerate. The female gametophyte is formed by mitosis from the surviving megaspore.

Prior to fertilization, the male mature gametophyte needs to be transferred to the female gametophyte for fertilization to take place.

When the nuclei of the sperm encounter the nucleus of the egg cell in gymnosperms, it fuses with the egg nucleus to produce a diploid zygote.

Mitosis occurs in the fertilized egg to initiate the growth of a new sporophyte generation (the multicellular embryo of the seed.)

Therefore, we can conclude that we've understood the mechanism of developmental sequence in the gymnosperm megasporangium.
