Are plasma cells and helper t cells the same thing?

No, plasma cells and helper T cells are different types of immune cells. Plasma cells are a type of B cell that produces antibodies, while helper T cells are a type of T cell that helps activate other immune cells, including B cells.

Does plasma determine a person's blood type?

Yes, plasma plays a role in determining a person's blood type. Blood type is classified based on the presence or absence of specific antigens on the surface of red blood cells, as well as antibodies present in the plasma. For instance, individuals with type A blood have A antigens on their red blood cells and B antibodies in their plasma. Therefore, both the antigens on the cells and the antibodies in the plasma contribute to defining a person's blood type.

Which White blood cells that activate plasma cells?

Helper T cells (Th2 cells) play a role in activating plasma cells, which are responsible for producing antibodies. Helper T cells release cytokines that stimulate B cells to differentiate into plasma cells and produce specific antibodies against pathogens.


Why does blood separate into three parts?

Gravity allows blood to be separated. Blood is a mixture of Cells and Plasma. Each type of cell and the plasma "weigh" differently. Thus, the heavier more solid blood will sink to the bottom of the tube (RBCs), the lightest liquid part comes to the top (Plasma), and in the middle of the two is where the middleweight Leukocytes settle in. CELLS: 3 types - Erythrocytes (also called Red Blood Cells or RBCs), Leukocytes (also called White Blood Cells or WBCs), and Platelets. Plasma is 90% water and the liquid part of blood.


What does removing red bloods cells from plasma also remove?

Can type O positive get type A positive ffp?

Yes. Rh status is unimportant in transfusing plasma because Rh antigen are on red cells only. The amount of red cells in a unit of plasma is insignificant. If the unit looks orange-reddish, an Rh positive plasma should not be given to an Rh negative plasma if possible.


Why have type B red corpuscles clumped together when mixed with type A plasma?

Type B red blood cells clump together when mixed with type A plasma because of the presence of anti-A antibodies in the type A plasma. These antibodies recognize and bind to the A antigens on the surface of type A red blood cells, leading to agglutination. Since type B red blood cells do not have A antigens, the anti-A antibodies target them, causing the clumping reaction. This is a critical aspect of blood type compatibility in transfusions.
