Worksheet On Blood Components

10. Type A: The genotype is either AA or AO. The antigens on the blood cell are A and the antibodies in the blood plasma are B.

There are four blood types found in humans. These are A blood type which has the genotype either AA or AO, B blood type which has the genotype either BB or BO, AB blood type which has the genotype AB, and O blood type which has the genotype OO. These genotypes show a combination of complete dominance and codominance. A and B traits are dominant to the recessive O trait, however, the A trait is codominant to the B trait. Each blood type codes for certain antigens. A blood codes for the A surface antigen, B blood codes for the B surface antigen, AB blood codes for both the A and B surface antigen, and O blood does not code for a surface antigen. Therefore to determine one’s blood type a test can be performed

 The blood cell is made in the bone marrow of a bone and then enters a vein and goes toward to superior vena cava. The blood cell joins millions of other blood cells as well as white blood cells and platelets inside of plasma.

A 13 year old is studying blood in school, and has asked some questions that haven't been answered in class. I will answer

To test the blood, we first dropped two drops of blood into two spots in a micro-well plate, then we added the appropriate serum to both and mixed with a small stick. One side was labeled A, for the A Anti-Serum, and one was labeled B. If the A blood clotted it meant that the A antigen was found, and likewise with B. If both clotted the blood type was AB, and if neither clotted the blood was type O. Some errors made

Antibodies and antigens in the blood are looked at to find blood type. “Blood also contains proteins called antigens, but antibodies only attach to foreign antigens” (Rohrig 4). Antibodies are proteins in the human body that keeps us healthy. If they recognize a foreign substance, such as an infection, they attack it to keep the sickness out. Antibodies are chemical components that make up the blood. Antibodies are similar to white blood cells, they do the same job but antibodies are a protein. “Some people have only A antigens on their red blood cells some have only B, some have both A and B and some have none, making these people’s blood types A, B, AB, and O” (Rohrig 4). Antigens are another chemical component of the blood that determines a person's blood type. Looking at the blood type and chemical components of the blood requires chemistry. Chemistry is related to the forensics of blood by blood

which are divided into three groups:1) Anemia caused by blood loss 2)Anemia caused by decreased or faulty red blood cell production.3)Anemia caused by destruction of red blood cells.

In-order-to test this hypothesis the Investigators pricked their fingers in order to bleed. Once the investigators began to bleed they squeezed drops of blood out of the small wound on to wells on the blood test card. The wells were labeled “anti-A,” “anti-B,” and “anti-D.” After they bleed into the wells, the investigators dropped one drop of anti-A serum in the well labeled “anti-A,” one drop of anti-B serum in the well labeled “anti-B,” and one drop of anti-D serum in the well labeled “anti-D.” In order to test for the Rh factor, the investigators mixed, with a serial toothpick, the anti-D and the Blood. Our hypothesis was correct with forty-five percent of the class having type A positive or O positive

There are four major blood groups expressed by the ABO system. All individuals and many other primates can be categorized for the ABO blood group. First, the blood group A has A antigens on the red blood cells with anti-B antibodies in the plasma blood. Second, group B has B antigens with anti-A antibodies in the plasma blood. Next, group O develops no antigens but has together anti-A and anti-B antibodies in the plasma blood. For group AB, it has both A and B antigens but no antibodies.

First, with respect to blood properties (RBC, Hb, Hct, MCV, and MCH), the levels of group A, B, and C significantly decreased compared to those of group D. Groups A, B, and C showed signs of

2. Mary cannot donate blood to her sister Jane because Jane’s body will produce B antibodies and try to fight off Mary’s type AB blood.

Blood contains hematic cells that are classified in erythrocytes or white blood cells (WBCs) and leukocytes or red blood cells (RBCs) and platelets or thrombocytes, whose main function is to stop the loss of blood from the wounds. The erythrocytes are the most numerous cell in the blood and they are responsible for providing the tissue with oxygen, while leukocytes are a part of the human body’s immune system and protect the body against bacteria,

Bones have tons of information, facts, sections, vessels, and cells. There are many different types of bones according to shape: long bones, short bones, flat bones, irregular bones. Long bones, like the femur, are found in arms and legs. Short bones are cube like and mostly found in wrists and ankles. Bones are covered with periosteum, a tough connective tissue that contains blood vessels. These vessels transport blood and nutrients to nurture bone cells. Also inside the cell are two types of marrow, red and yellow. Bone marrow is soft, spongy tissue found in hollow spaces inside bones. Red bone marrow is made of mainly hematopoietic tissue while yellow bone marrow is made of fatty tissue. These two tissues give marrow its color, vascularity,

Blood grouping involves the use of ABO system as described by Karl Landsteiner. The grouping came into existence in the year 1900 after discovery by Nobel Prize winner Karl Landsteiner. He first discovered three blood types A, B, and O, but after two years he discovered the fourth blood group AB. This discovery led to four major types of blood that includes A, AB, B and O. The grouping depends on the presence of two chief antigens and antibodies. The two antigens responsible for blood grouping include A and B while the antibodies include anti-A and anti-B. The combination of the two antigens and antibodies thus determines the blood types. The blood type A has antigen A and antibody anti-B. The blood group B express Antigen B and antibody anti-A (Reid and Lomas, 2004). Blood group O express no antigen but possess antibodies

The purpose of this lab is to determine the blood type of two samples. The objectives of the blood typing lab were to learn about antigens and the consequences of incompatibility, blood typing, and to illustrate antigen-antibody complexes and agglutination.
