Someone who has Rh-factor __________ blood cannot receive blood with a __________ type.
positive, antigen |
|
negative, positive |
|
antigen, negative |
|
positive, negative |
Blood transfer is limited by the type and Rh factor of the blood. Someone who has Rh-factor negative blood cannot receive blood with a positive type but a person with Rh-factor positive type blood can receive Rh-negative blood. Type O negative blood is the universal donor because it can be given to a person with any blood type. Type AB positive is the universal recipient meaning someone with this blood type can receive any other type of blood.
What is a major difference between the somatic and autonomic nervous systems?
one controls thinking, the other controls feeling |

Both are part of the peripheral nervous system. The somatic nervous system sends sensory information to the central nervous system and controls voluntary actions while the autonomic nervous system regulates involuntary activity in the heart, stomach, and intestines.

Elements in the same group in the Periodic Table of the Elements have the same:
number of electrons in their outer electron shell |
|
number of electrons |
|
number of electron shells |
|
number of atomic mass units |
The columns of the Periodic Table are called groups and all elements in a group have the same number of electrons in their outer electron shell. The group that an element occupies generally determines its chemical properties as the number of outer shell electrons establishes the way it reacts with other elements to form molecules. So, because each element has the same number of electrons in its outer shell, each has similar reactivity.

|
proton |
|
