Chapter 6.5, Problem 2LO
Summary Introduction

To predict:

The compatibility of blood types for a transfusion.

Introduction:

In humans four different types of blood groups are found: A, B, AB, and O. These are different on the presence of surface protein or presence or absence of Rh factor. In blood transfusion to check the presence of these proteins are important. Therefore blood typing is important before the transfusion of blood else it will lead to blood incompatibility, that means agglutination of blood or blood clumping which result in damaged of red blood cells which makes the person anaemic.

Blood compatibility is to check whether the agglutination reaction is occurring or not. Agglutination reaction is defined as the antibodies present in plasma reacts with the surface antigen which leads to RBCs damaged or anaemic condition.

You decide to delete Fgf4 and Fgf8 specifically in the limb bud. Explain why you would not knock out these genes in the entire embryo instead.
You implant an FGF10-coated bead into the anterior flank of a chicken embryo, directly below the level of the wing bud. What is the phenotype of the resulting ectopic limb?  Briefly describe the expected expression domains of 1) Shh, 2) Tbx4, and 3) Tbx5 in the resulting ectopic limb bud.
Design a grafting experiment to determine if limb mesoderm determines forelimb / hindlimb identity. Include the experiment, a control, and an interpretation in your answer.
