Plasmapheresis is a procedure in which blood is removed, its plasma is separated from the formed elements, and the formed
elements are returned to the patient or donor. Kidney transplants usually require that the donor and recipient have the same
blood type. If plasmapheresis is administered to the patient before and after the transplant surgery, rejection of the kidney is
unlikely to occur. Explain why.

+Bleeding disorders are usually a result of thrombocytopenia, a deficiency of platelets. Considering the mechanism of hemo-
stasis, explain why thrombocytopenia could lead to abnormal bleeding.
