Why is exposure more harmful to the fetus than mother

Biology
1 answer:
Temka [501]3 years ago
5 0

Answer:The mother's antibodies can destroy the red blood cells of the fetus.

Explanation:

If a woman with an Rh negative (Rh-) blood group has a child with an Rh positive (Rh +) male, there is a possibility that the child is also Rh +. Although this has no consequences throughout pregnancy itself, as the mother's and fetus's blood does not come into direct contact during pregnancy, it can have serious consequences for subsequent pregnancies.

In fact, rupture of the placenta at the time of childbirth may allow some red blood cells from the fetus to pass into the maternal circulation and cause sensitization, meaning the woman's body will detect them and begin to make anti-human antibodies. Rh that will persist indefinitely in the blood. If a woman regenerates another Rh + child, the anti-Rh antibodies present in her blood will pass easily into the fetus's blood through the placenta and attack and destroy the fetus' red blood cells, which can lead to severe fetal anemia and serious repercussions that sometimes lead to intrauterine death.

Substances that are released into the environment to the extent that they start affecting the organisms in the environment negatively are known as pollutants.

Pollutants can come from natural sources or as a result of human activities.

For example pollutants such as oxides of sulfur, methane, carbon dioxide, etc. can come from natural processes such as volcanic eruptions, activities of microbes, etc.

Pollutants such as oxides of carbon and sulfur can also be generated as a result of human activities such as the burning of coal, technological inventions, etc.

When a horse and a donkey have an offspring, it is called a mule--a hybrid that cannot reproduce itself. Why are horses and donk
RUDIKE [14]

Answer:

Horses and donkeys are two different species but belong to the same family Equidae and the genus Equus. They both have different numbers of chromosomes.

Although they look quite similar in appearance, there are many dissimilarities.

The physical differences between horses and donkeys include:

Donkeys backs are flatter than horses.

Donkeys have smaller hoofs than horses.

Donkeys have longer and thicker ears than horses.

Horses tend to have a long face than Donkeys.

Horses have six vertebrates, while donkeys have only five.

Tails of horses and donkey differ. Horses have long tails, whereas donkey’s tail looks like a cow’s tail.

On the genetic level, the total number of chromosomes in the horse is 64 and donkey have 62 number of chromosomes. Mule is a hybrid of a female horse and a male donkey. Hinny is a hybrid of a female donkey and a male horse. Both the offspring (hybrid offspring) produced by donkeys and horses are infertile, sterile, cannot have its own offspring and both have 31 pairs of chromosomes each.

If the produced offspring is fertile then the animals are of the same species and if the produced offspring is sterile then they are of different species. Because of this, both horses and donkeys are considered as a separate species. A species is generally defined as a group of organisms, which are capable of interbreeding and creating viable offspring. In this case, mule and the hinny are not really a new species and are produced by two different species.
