Blood Type
The four blood types.
What are A, B, AB, and O?
They carry oxygen to our cells.
What are Red Blood Cells?
A blood type is + when this test tube shows clumping
What is the Rh tube?
The Rh Factor is named after this animal.
What is the Rhesus Monkey?
The yellow fluid portion of blood.
What is plasma?
This blood type is identified when all three tubes show clumping.
What is AB+?
The amount of red blood cells in 1 to 2 drops of blood.
What is a billion?
A person with B+ has these antigens.
What are B and Rh?
They are a part of our immune system
What are White Blood Cells?
The percent of blood that is red blood cells.
What is 45%?
This blood type is identified when clumping in tube A and Rh is observed
What is A+?
The most common blood type.
What is type O?
A person with AB- has these antigens.
What are A and B?
Clotting Factors in our blood
What are Platelets?
The percent of plasma found in the blood
What is a 55%?
This blood type is identified when no clumping in all three tubes is observed
What is type O-?
The rarest blood type.
What is type AB?
This blood type has all three antigens
What is AB+?
Proteins in the blood or secretory fluids that attach to and destroy foreign substances in the body or cause clumping as part of your immune system.
What are antibodies?
Blood typing is considered this type of evidence (class or individual)
What is Class evidence?
Explain why clumping occurs in the test tubes (can be drawn)
The blood sample has antigens that are shaped like the antibodies found in the test tube. The antibodies attach to the antigens causing clumping.
The average adult has this amount of blood inside their body. (in Liters)
What is 5 Liters?
