Chapter 16, Problem 8IA
Summary Introduction
To explain:
The reason for the presence of the Y chromosome in the cells of a female athlete, who has received a kidney transplantation from her brother.
Introduction:
The process of the transfer of cells, tissues, or organ of human from one person to another with the aim to rehabilitate function of the body is known as transplantation. The recipient cells may recognize the tissue or cells of the donor as foreign. The body of the recipient then attempts to destroy the transferred tissue or cells. These responses are termed as “tissue rejection reaction”. Stem cells are the cells that divide mitotically and are required by the body in order to maintain the growth and repair of the tissues.
