Summary Introduction
Introduction:
In humans, the blood group is categorized under four groups are found: A, B, AB, and O. These blood groups are categorized on the basis of the presence or absence of surface protein. The other factor in categorizing the blood groups is the presence of

What would happen if patient 4 (O+) donated plasma to patient 1 (A+)?
Select one:
a.
You cannot donate only plasma.
b.
The anti-A antibodies in the plasma of patient 4 would agglutinate with the antigens on the RBC of patient 1.
c.
It would be a safe donation because no agglutination would occur.
d.
The anti-A antibodies in the plasma of patient 1 would agglutinate with the antigens on the RBC of patient 4.
You have a patient with prostate cancer. The cancer causes blood vessels to weaken and burst. The patient has a dangerously low Hematocrit and needs a blood transfusion. When you test his blood for type, here are the results: Anti-A- agglutination, Anti-B- agglutination, Anti-Rh- no reaction.
1. List all blood types he can receive.
When you enthusiastically suggest that blood transfusions will help him, he protests that his religious beliefs disallow him from accepting transfusions. You will need to find a way to help his own body both retain the blood he has, and make new blood.
2. Based only on what we've learned so far re: blood and endocrine, come up with hypotheses about how you could do each.
3. Propose a mechanism of how EPO might work: what cells might it target, would it enter them, and what sorts of proteins might it activate? (This question references endocrine: how hormones work, and why it matters if they are water-soluble or fat-solube)
4. There is a drug called…
Which of the following statements is true?
A. Some individuals are born with Rh antibodies.
B. A person could acquire Rh antigens from a blood transfusion.
C. A pregnant female could give her developing baby Rh antibodies
D. A pregnant female could acquire Rh antibodies.

(presence/absence of Rh factor undetermined) (D) O+ (E) O- (F) O ? (presence/absence of Rh factor undetermined)arrow_forwardWhen a mother is Rh-, there is a chance the baby may have hemolytic disease of Newborns. Rh+ mothers do not have this issue. Why? Rh- moms do not have the Rh antigen in their body. A Rh- mom can have a Rh+ baby depending on the male sperm. During pregnancy, Rh- mom can be exposed to her baby's Rh antigen. Let's look at figure a) the first pregnancy. The Rh- mom is pregnant with a Rh+ baby. The baby exposes the mom to Rh antigen during pregnancy. This first baby is delivered and is ok. Figure (b) between pregnancies, the mother is exposed to the foreign antigen Rh and she makes antibodies against Rh. She now has anti-D (anti-Rh) in her body. Figure (c) her second pregnancy with a Rh+ baby. On the next pregnancy that the mom has with a baby. The mom has the anti-D (anti-Rh) antibody in her system. The antibody will attack the baby's RBCS with the Rh antigen on it. When the baby's RBC's are attacked the RBC will hemolyse (hemo=RBC; Lysis=cut). This will result in severe anemia.
