Chapter 18, Problem 1TMW
Summary Introduction
To tell:
The reason that army corporal with AB blood can receive blood from sergeant with O group, but cannot donate blood to sergeant with O group.
Introduction:
Each person has different blood types when compared with others. The blood grouping is based on the ABO test. The people carry any one type of antigen in their red blood cell. The people with A antigen are grouped under A, and person with B antigen are placed under B. The persons with no antigen are placed under O group.

Ms. Wu, whose blood type is O-, requires a blood transfusion.Her family members volunteer to donate blood. Their blood types are as follows: her son, type B-; her husband, type B+; her daughter, type O+. Which family members could safely donate blood to Ms. Wu? Who could not? Explain.
I have a patient who is blood type B- and has received a blood donation from a blood type B- donor. Will the patient's immune system accept the red blood cells from the donor as "self" cells and allow the cells to live? Will the patient's immune system accept the white blood cells (B cells, T cells, etc) from the donor as "self" cells and allow the cells to live?
I believe it’s the last option but want to make sure

- In terms of antigens and antibodies, explain why O- is considered a universal donor and why AB+ is considered a universal recipient. Even so, why can’t whole blood O- be donated to a person of type AB+ blood?arrow_forwardA woman has O-negative blood. The following is a list of her children and their blood types. If she was not given RhoGAM, which child would be at risk for erythroblastosis fetalis? Baby 1: O- Baby 2: A- Baby 3: A+ Baby 4: O+ Baby 5: A-arrow_forwardApart from suffering from recurrent and prolonged infections, Marie Curie experienced the following signs and symptoms: fatigue, rapid heart rate, pale skin, easy bruising, prolonged bleeding from cuts, and dizziness. Bone marrow transplant was not an option at that time and so blood transfusion was the treatment of choice. Assume her blood group was A negative. Which blood groups can she receive? Which blood groups can she not receive? Explain why. Thank youarrow_forward
- * Type B individuals can receive Type B or Type O blood. Since this individual is Type B+, they can receive Type B+ or Type B- blood. Rh-individuals cannot receive Rh+ blood. An individual with Type B+ blood requires a blood transfusion. Which specific blood types can this individual receive? (Select all that apply.) Type B- Type O- Type O+ Type AB+ Туре АВ- Type B+arrow_forwardA patient requires a blood transfusion after experiencing blood loss due to a traumatic injury. The patient's record lists their blood type as B+, Out of the following available options in the blood bank, what is the best type of donor blood to give to this patient? O Type A blood with antibodies removed via centrifugation O Type O- blood with antibodies removed via centrifugation Type AB+ blood with antibodies removed via centrifugation O Type O- whole bloodarrow_forwardChoose all the correct statments. A person with type AB blood can receive a transfusion form a type O individual. A person with type O blood can receive a transfusion from a type AB individual. A person with only the A antigen on the surface of red blood cells is type A. They also have anti B antibodies in their plasma. A person with antigens A and B on the surface of their red blood cells is type AB and have no antibodies in their plasma. A person with the Rh factor is Rh+. A person who is type O has the O antigen on the surface of their red blood cells, and have anti A antibodies in their plasma.arrow_forward
- Dr. Martin said a donor with type B- could donate blood to an AB+ recipient. AB+ is a universal cell recipient but never a universal whole blood recipient. So, why does hemolysis result from B- whole blood transfused into an AB+ recipient?arrow_forwardA person with type A+ blood gets a transfusion with type O- blood. What is most likely to happen to the recipient? A) The recipient's blood will agglutinate (clump) due to the presence of natural antibodies in the recipient's blood. B) Nothing because the donor's blood is compatible with the recipient's blood. C) The recipient's blood will agglutinate (clump) due to the presence of natural antigens on the recipient's blood cells.arrow_forwardWhy might erythroblastosis fetalis occur when an Rh- mother becomes pregnant with a second Rh+ baby (after exposure to the previous Rh+ baby's blood)? A) Erythroblastosis fetalis can only occur when an Rh+ mother becomes pregnant with an Rh- baby. B) After primary exposure, if the Rh- mother has an Rh+ baby, then antibodies the mom produces can cross the placenta and attack the baby's blood. C) The Rh- mother always produces antibodies to the Rh+ blood, so erythroblastosis fetalis is a condition that can happen to any Rh+ baby (first or subsequent).arrow_forward
- 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…arrow_forwardIf antibody RH is given to a person with a B+ blood type what would happen?
