Answer:

These changes probably would have taken place because of antigenic shift or to a smaller extent because of antigenic drift. The antigenic shift takes place when the segments of the influenza viral genome recombine in various ways, and this leads to major modifications to the proteins present on the surface.  

The individuals generally do not possess immunological memory to this novel strain of the virus, thus, the disease that they encounter can be more extreme in comparison to the infection with strains to which they possess certain immunological memory. The antigenic shift can result in influenza pandemics.

<span>I suspect this question should read "How long does a red blood cell live." A red blood cell lives for between 100 and 120 days. It takes 7 days for a new red blood cell to develop from stem cells. Stem cells are similar to base cells. They can also be seen as a general template from which specialized cells are made. Stem cells can be taken from a newborn baby's umbilical chord or extracted from an adult blood donor's blood.</span>
