Answer:

Transgenic organism are the genetically modified organisms on their molecular level by altering their gene to improve the particular quality that is related to the particular gene in the organisms. It can be perform in bacteria, plants and animals, the produced organisms called transgenic organisms. The beneficial applications of such organism are given as follows:

Transgenic bacteria: these bacteria are first organisms to be genetically modified and used for several functions such as human proteins, producing material plastics and many more.

Transgenic plants: such genetically modified plants can be used to enhance food quality and quantity, to make pest resistant breed and increase the extreme condition tolerance and many more.

Transgenic animals: they are used to improve the quality of food supply, improve medicines and research purposes and many more applications.

Each ABO blood group is associated with the presence/absence of RBC antigens and the presence/absence of antibodies in the plasm

harina [27]

Answer:

a. Type O blood - No A or B antigens on RBCs-Anti-A antibodies in plasma-Anti-B antibodies in plasma

b. Type A blood - A antigen on RBCs- Anti-B antibodies in plasma

c. Type B blood - B antigen on RBCs- Anti-A antibodies in plasma

d. Type AB blood - A antigen on RBCs- B antigen on RBCs- Neither anti-A or anti-B in plasma

Explanation:

ABO blood grouping system represents multiple allelism which was discovered in humans by Karl Landsteiner. The blood group is determined by the presence or absence of A & B antigens and antibodies.

The 4 blood groups which exist in ABO system are O, A, B and AB. Also, allele A and B are co-dominant i.e. if they both will exist on the surface of an RBC then both will be equally expressed which implies that there will be no dominant or recessive allele.

Type O blood group has H antigen on the surface of RBC and has both the antibodies i.e. antibody A and B. The absence of antigens A and B makes it a universal donor.

Type A blood group has A antigen on RBC and has antibody B in the plasma.

Type B blood group has B antigen on RBC and has antibody A in the plasma.

Type AB blood group has both the antigens i.e. antigen A and B on RBC and does not have any antibody in the plasma which makes it a universal acceptor.
