Red blood cells in A-positive individuals:

Biology
1 answer:
katrin2010 [14]3 years ago
7 0

Answer:

Red blood cells in blood type A-positive individuals have the A antigen, and generate antibodies against the B antigen (option B).

Explanation:

The basis of compatibility by blood group, according to the ABO system, is due to the presence of surface antigens A and B in the red blood cells. When a specific antigen is present, the body recognizes it as its own, while the other antigen will be recognized as foreign, and will induce antibody synthesis.

Blood types are determined by the presence, or absence, of these surface antigens A and B, generating antibodies against the antigens it does not possess, which can be summarized:

  • <u>Blood type A</u><u> </u>has surface antigen A, but antibodies against B.
  • <u>Blood type B</u> has surface antigen B, and antibodies against A
  • <u>Blood type AB</u> has both A and B antigens, so it does not generate antibodies .
  • <u>Blood type O</u> has no antigens, but can produce antibodies to both antigens.

Individuals' blood type is a genetically inherited trait

What is the difference between plankton, nekton and benthos?
Archy [21]
<span>The common difference between the three organisms is the area in which they specifically live or stay in the ocean. Planktons can’t be seen by the naked eye and they require microscopes to be detected. Planktons usually float in the water and they cannot move on their own that’s why they are dependent in the movement of the water.

Nektons are organisms that swim through the water and they live in different depths in the ocean ecosystem. Nektons are composed of fish and other mammals that propel themselves through the water.

Benthos are organisms that live in the ocean floor and many of these organisms stay in one place by attaching themselves to rocks. This adaptation protects them from crashing waves and drastic water movements. Other benthos are known to burrow in the ocean floor either for food or protection.</span>
