Susan wants to determine her blood
type, so she takes a few drops of
blood and mixes it with various
antisera. Her blood cells agglutinate
when mixed with anti-B serum and
anti-Rh serum, but not anti-A serum.
This means…

Plasma, Blood Typing
She is blood type B +
(The anti-B serum antibodies
attacked the blood type B
antigens, leading to
agglutination. Same for anti-Rh)

Why does anemia make individuals
feel tired and low on energy?
30
Potpourri
Because they do not produce enough red blood
cells or are low on iron. They therefore are not
getting enough oxygen to their cells for cell
respiration to occur.
Increase iron in the diet or through
supplementation can correct this problem
