Q

observe the results of a standard blood typing test. Determine the blood type for samples 1-4. How did you come to these conclusions?

A

Sample 1: B – the blood mixed with A Antibodies had no clumps, the blood mixed with B Antibodies had lots of clumps; meaning that the blood type is B as the B antibodies attached to the B antigens on the blood cells and made them coagulate
Sample 2: O – the blood mixed with A Antibodies had no clumps, the blood mixed with B Antibodies had no clumps; meaning that the blood type is O as the A and B antibodies did not affect the blood cells as there are no antigens on the curface of O type blood cells
Sample 3: AB – the blood mixed with A Antibodies had clumps, the blood mixed with B Antibodies clumps; meaning that the blood type is AB as the A and B antibodies attached to the A and B antigens on the blood cells and made them coagulate
Sample 4: A – the blood mixed with A Antibodies had clumps, the blood mixed with B Antibodies had no clumps; meaning that the blood type is A as the A antibodies attached to the A antigens on the blood cells and made them coagulate

Q

c) Can you receive a blood type other than your own?

A

Yes. 1: Blood can be spun down and erythrocytes can be separated from the plasma (which has the antibodies in it). If this is done which blood type can receive all other blood types and which blood type can be given to all blood types. ANSWER: AB is the universal recipient, as it has no antibodies in its plasma to have a reaction with the antigens on the erythrocytes. O is the universal donor, as it has no surface antigens to react with antibodies in the plasma of other blood types.

Q

b) What is the benefit of the heart being in close proximity to the lungs?

A

The blood that has oxygenated in the lungs does not have to travel far to be drained back into the heart to be pumped around the body, and the deoxygenated blood that has returned to the heart does not have to travel far to be pumped into the lungs for oxygenation

26
Q

Define the term myocardium

A

Middle layer of the heart wall, made up of cardiac muscle, makes up the bulk of the heart. Contracts when stimulated by heart conduction system.

30
Q

a) What happens to the myocardium if there is a blockage in one of the coronary arteries?

A

Blood is not delivered to regions of myocardium which results in Cardiac Ischemia (Heart Attack)

31
Q

b) Why does the heart need its own circulation?

A

Because the heart tissue does not take nutrients from the blood in its chambers.

32
Q

flow of blood

A

deoxy blood from body enter RA through coronary sinus, svc and ivc.
tricuspid valve opens and blood goes to RV
pulmonary valve opens and takes blood to lungs via pulmonary trunk and arteries.
from the lungs oxygenated blood enters LA through pulmonary veins.

38
Q

ii) Does it have a cardiostimulatory or cardioinhibitory effect on the heart?
