Question
, you go back and look for Zed,the space alien in your tavorite burgerjoin: He is still there munching on some onion rings. You ask Zed, "Can I do some experiments on you? 11. You go back a Zed answers, "O.K." So, it's off to the lab you go, and you examine Zed's physiology carefully. Zed's circulatory system looks a lot like our own system, with a few very interesting differences: . On the surface of his red blood cells, you find the B protein and the Rh protein, but vou also find another one that is not found in humans: the C protein! Zed says that, although he doesn't have the A protein on his red blood cells, it is not uncommon for people from his planet to have the A protein. . His blood vessels and heart at first seem to be connected identically to that of humans, but upon closer examination, you discover that the blood flow is actually backwards from what it is in humans. (a) What are all of the possible blood types for aliens from Zed's planet? (b) What type(s) of human blood could be successfully transfused into Zed? Zed's circulatory system? Assume Zed's circulatory system contains the same basic parts that human circulatory systems do. (c) What must be different about the set-up of the heart and blood vessels ofExplanation / Answer
a. the possible blood type in humans are 'A" "B" "AB" and"O".
So here the possible blood type can be: "C" "B" "BC" These all blood type can be RH positive or RH negative.
b.
Only blood type B can be transferred to the zed because the blood group of Zef is also have similarity as the blood group of B in humans. Zed body can produce antibodies against antigen A that is why AB or A blood group can not be transduced. transfer of blood group B into said does not rejected by the zed bodies system and accepted.
c.
in the human circulatory system pure blood or oxygenated blood moves from heart to organs or cells are tissues.
impure blood or deoxygenated blood which have high amount of carbon dioxide moves from cells or tissues to the heart for further purification.
zed system is same but the blood flow is opposite, it means we can say the impure blood moves from hearts to tissues and draw blood from tissues to heart.
