If the above clot dislodges, it is a embolus _.
What is a coronary thrombosis?
A blood clot that forms in a vessel that supplies the heart.
What is hemophilia?
Several different bleeding disorders that exhibit similar signs and symptoms.
Blood Groups and Transfusions:
After mixed success with transfusions, scientists determined that blood was of different types and only
certain combinations were compatible.
Clumping of red blood cells following transfusion is called _ Agglutination __.
This clumping is due to the interaction of proteins on the surfaces of red blood cells called
_ antigens __ with certain proteins called _ antibodies _ carried in the plasma.
Blood Types:
Define antigen and antibody-
antigen- substance that is recognized as foreign by the immune system to activate an immune
response.
antibody- a protein molecule released by a plasma cell that binds to an antigen (an immunoglobin)
Identify the antigens and antibodies found in the following blood types.
Table 17.4 on page 65 7 in the textbook will help you with this question.
Blood Type Antigen Antibody
A A Anti-B
B B Anti-A
AB A & B None
O None Anti-A & Anti-B
RH Blood Types
The Rh factor was named after the _ rhesus __ monkey.
If the Rh factor surface protein is present on red blood cells, the blood is Rh _ positive _;
if not, it is Rh negative _.
