Why is it important for a person to receive a blood type and Rh factor that is compatible with his or her own blood?

Biology

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.

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.

What is the pathway of information through a neuron?
garik1379 [7]

Answer:

The pathway of information through the neuron is based in the connection of axons with other neurons, favoring the conduction of information from one place to another of the nervous system. The way in which a neuron communicates with another, with a receptor or an effector is called synapse.

Explanation:

Neurons are the specialized cells that allow the function of the nervous system, given by the transmission of information in the form of nerve impulses. The way in which information is transmitted by neurons depends on the connection that exists between neurons, by their axons and dendrites, or between enurons and specialized structures such as receptors and effectors.

When a stimulus reaches a receptor, it connects with the neuron that carries the information by afferent pathway to the central nervous system. Once the information is processed, a response is elaborated that travels through the neurons by efferent pathway to an effector cell.

Synapses are simply the connection that exists between neurons, through their axons, or from these cells to the receptor or effector structures. Synapses are located between one neuronal axon and another, or between axons and receptors or effectors, and occur through electrical signals or chemical mediators called neurotransmitters.

Which of the following statements about the effects of pollution on marine ecosystems is true?
ankoles [38]

Answer is b. Burning fossil fuels causes a decrease in the pH of ocean water making it more acidic.

Burning of fossil fuels release carbon dioxide and other harmful gases in the atmosphere. Carbon dioxide gets dissolves in the ocean to form carbonic acid.  Due to formation carbonic acid, the pH of ocean water changes slightly. The average pH of ocean water was 8.2 slightly basic. Now it 8.1, it means there is 25 % increase in acidity of ocean water.

Muscle soreness associated with strenuous exercise is at least partly due to
34kurt

Answer:

Anaerobic respiration resulting in oxygen debt, due to lactic acid accumulation.

Explanation:

After strenuous muscle activity extra oxygen is needed to re-convert lactic acid into glucose and ATP. As you exercise the liver anaerobically converts glucose to lactic acid and carbon dioxide this results in oxygen debts that needs to be repaid later.

Oxygen debt by definition is the amount of oxygen needed by muscles to oxidise lactic acid to glucose after muscle activity.

How can some organisms survive as single cells when other organisms require many cells?
irakobra [83]

Well, different organisms require different things. A single celled bacteria does not need a lot at all compared to a plant or animal. One cell can support a bacrerium. An animal needs many cells to carry out the functions necessary for it to live.

Which statements about the cycle of weathering, erosion, and deposition are true? Check all that apply.
kompoz [17]

The correct statements are-

Erosion occurs even when the mountains are forming. Erosion is the movement of sediments from the broken rocks through the agents like gravity, wind, water and others. It is a constant process occurring even while the mountains are forming. It is affected by gravity.

When new mountains or plateaus form, the cycle starts over. Weathering is the breakdown of rocks by the weathering agents. These sediments move due to the process of erosion. A new sediment may be dropped nearby or in a new place by the process of deposition. Weathering, erosion and deposition occur together as a cycle and have almost leveled the land surface.

Weathering, erosion and deposition have almost leveled earth’s surface. These three processes occur as a cycle and have almost leveled the land surface.
