Since the blood is already separated form the cellular components and the plasma, blood typing can be a challenge if the medical technologist does not know the theory. Antigens are membrane proteins on the red blood cells. There are 2 types of antigens namely the A antigen and B antigen. Blood types are according to the antigen present in the red blood cells. Blood type O has no antigens in the red cell surface, blood type A has A antigen, blood type B has B antigen, and blood type AB has both A and B antigens. In identifying the antigen, the researcher should extract the cellular components rather the plasma. The plasma, on the other hand, contains antibodies.

Blood type is a genetically determined trait. Two siblings donate blood and find out their blood types. The brother is Type A an
rjkz [21]

Answer:

C

Explanation:

The brother has different alleles for the blood type gene than his sister does.  Blood type is inherited from parents like many other traits that can be displayed on a punnet square.  Depending on what the parents blood type alleles were, the brother and sister could have different blood types.  

A different number of chromosomes doesn't lead to different blood types, so D is wrong.  And A is incorrect because the number genes also does not affect blood type.  And I think the blood type genes are on the same chromosome, so B is wrong.  C is correct because blood type is inherited by alleles, and different alleles can cause different traits, such as blood types.

Jobisdone [24]

"D is correct answer." The statements are true it's necessary to continued to stretch from during the game. Getting the blood moving through your muscles prepares them for physical activity. Joints can be warmed up through stretching. "Hope this helps!" "Have a great day!" "Thank you for posting your questions!"

Often the growth cycle of one population has an effect on the cycle of another. As moose populations increase, wolf populations
babymother [125]

Answer:

The correct answer is option D) "K".

Explanation:

In this example the wolf population is described by the equation "ΔN/Δt=rN(K−N)K". Even tough the variables are not defined in the question, we can conclude that the effect of the moose population will be given by a factor that has a positive effect in the wolf's population because "as moose populations increase, wolf populations also increase". The factor "K" fits the description because it gives a positive effect on "ΔN/Δt". "K" is a factor that multiplies "rN" at two different levels, therefore the higher the value of "K", the higher value of "ΔN/Δt" will be.
