Included Quiz Questions
Why is it important to know both the donor's and recipient's blood types before blood transfusion?
- To know if the donated blood type is compatible with the recipient and avoid a rejection reaction
- To know the number of red blood cells (RBCs) present in the blood of the donor

- Cadherin-based junctions — single-pass transmembrane proteins that connect two neighboring cells
- Glycolipids — help in cell communication
Glycoproteins on cell membranes act as what?
- Cell identity markers
- Storage molecules
- Hereditary molecules
