ABO_Rh Simulated Blood Typing Key

ABO/Rh Simulated Blood Typing Worksheet Using the ABO/Rh Simulated Blood Typing Handout, complete the following and answer the questions. Part 1- Key Terms Define the following Key Terms. 1 Antigens a protein on the outside of a cell that identifies the cell 2 Antibodies proteins of the immune s blood that mark foreign calls to • system floating in the be destroyed 3 Multiple Alleles- more than two alleles for a Population gere exist in 4 Codominance both alleles are expressed Leterozygote 5 Rh Factor- blood protein that follows a simple dominance interitance (Rht is dominant over Rh-) Part 2- Questions Answer the following questions. General 1 Safe transfusions of blood depend upon properly matching what? Causes Blood types 50 and clermping dont occur. Clotting. Genetics of Blood Types 1 ABO blood type is determined by the presences or absence of specific individual's red blood cells. • antigen on an 2 What is another name for blood proteins? antigens ABD group 4 A person whose red blood cells contain the protein A and the protein B has the blood type AB 3 What are the names of these blood proteins? 5 A person whose red blood cells lack the protein A and the protein B has the blood type 6 Explain why ABO blood type is an a genetic example of multiple alleles. Genes wy more than two alloles in the population 7 are called multiple alleles List the allele that codes for protein A. protein B. IB no protein. TA 8 A person with the genotype has the blood type 9 A person with the phenotype blood type B has the genotype IBI or I 10 A person with the genotype has the blood type 11 A person with b antibodies in their blood plasma has a the blood type A 12 A person with a and b antibodies in their blood plasma has the blood type 0 13 A person with A and B antigens on their red blood cells has the blood type AB Blood Transfusions 1 What would happen if a person of one blood type received a transfusion of a different blood type? Clotting & Clumping which caves serious health 2 Explain why the mixing of 2 different bloods will cause a clumping of the blood. Clumping is caused when the antibodies of the host bind to the antigens of the donor 3 Explain why a person with the Blood Type O produces the a and b antibodies. O blood has no antigens so the Ak B antibodies will not mark the Oblood for destruction by the 5 Why is blood Type AB called the "universal receiver?" immune system 6 Why is blood Type O called the "universal donor?" to destroy transfused blood O blood has no antigens so it does not cause an i'mmune response from the recipient Blood Typing 1 Another name for Antibodies-b is called Anti-b Sera Another name for Antibodies-a is called Anti-a sera 2 List the steps of the ABO blood typing procedure. • Mix antibodies of the blood sample. • Look for clumping • Nawe blood type according to which 3 What would be the result of adding Anti-b Sera to Blood Type B? clumping 4 What would be the result of adding Anti-b Sera to Blood Type O? nothing 5 If a red blood cell has Rh antigens, the red blood cell is said to be blood cell has no Rh antigens, the red blood cell is said to be Conversely, if the red Rh- 6 Explain why an Rh-person does not have Anti-Rh sera in their blood plasma. B/C their immune systemen would attack their red blood cells. 7 When does an Rh- person begin producing Anti-Rh Sera? when they are exposed to the Rht antigen 8 Explain the seriousness of having a mother with Rh-blood and a fetus with Rh+ blood.
