Answer:

While there are more than 20 blood-type systems, ABO and Rh are the most important ones. The importance of knowing your blood type is to prevent the risk of you receiving an incompatible blood type at a time of need, such as during a blood transfusion or during surgery.

Hope it helps

Answer:

Hey!

Here's why its important:-

When a foreign antigen reaches one’s blood, it stimulates the defense  mechanism. On receiving unmatching blood, the antigen present  in the donor's blood and the antibody present in the recipient's  blood will react with each other and form a blood clot. Hence,  everyone cannot receive blood from all blood groups.

Bruton's agammaglobulinemia may be defined as the X linked disorder that affects the immune system of an individual. This disease is mainly caused by the mutation in the gene responsible for coding the  Bruton tyrosine kinase.

The children suffering from this disease require special immunization and some precaution must be followed before immunizing them. These patients are not allowed to immunizes with the live vaccines as these vaccines can evoke the immune response strongly and child may get infected by the disease.

In fruit flies, eye color is a sex-linked trait. Red is dominant to white.
ozzi

Answer:

The correct answers are:

1 a. X^RX^r - red eye color female

b. X^RX^R - red eye color female

c. X^RY - red eye color male

d. X^rY - white eye color male

e. X^rX^r - white eye color female

(2nd part can also be answered by above)

Explanation:

It is given that the eye color is a sex-linked character where Red eye color is dominant over white eye color in fruit flies. Sex-linked characters are the character that is a similar inheritance pattern except in the case of the male as there is a Y chromosome that does not carry the gene for the eye color trait so the trait will depend on the allele present on a single  X chromosome in males.

On the basis of this, the sex and color of eyes will be:

a. X^RX^r - red eye color female - Dominant character will mask the recessive white color and two copies of X which means female.

b. X^RX^R - red eye color female - both copies are dominant so red-eye color will be expressed and two copies of the X chromosome that means female

c. X^RY - red eye color male - One X and one Y chromosome that means male and only dominant allele present so red eye color.

d. X^rY - white eye color male - Only allele that is present is recessive with one Y chromosome that means male with white eye color.

e. X^rX^r - white eye color female - two X chromosomes with recessive allele which means white eye color female.
