This is the case with all cells, this is due to regulation of gene expression. In all cells ( except B cells - be cause u DNA rearrangement) we have the same genome, so each cell produces whatever protein it wants and production of some proteins are inhibited or down regulated.

Eg:- The our tear ducts will produce tears containing lysozymes to protect us from infection but our salivary glands will produce saliva with amylase and other enzymes necessary to break down food Save

Can your blood type change when you have a your first child?

No it stays the same from when you were born till the day you die. However, changes can occur to other blood components. Blood is made up of red blood cells, white blood cells, platelets, proteins, lipids, carbohydrates, and complex compounds like polysaccarides and glycoproteins. Some proteins are antibodies made in response to a protein antigen. Because a fetus has proteins that are contributed from both father and mother, babies can have a different blood type than mom. During delivery, mom can be exposed to those different red blood cells and different proteins and start making protein antibodies. The next time she is pregnant, those new antibodies in her blood can attack the fetal red blood cells. This happens, for instance, in Rh positive and negative mismatches. The Rh proteins on the red blood cells of the baby will cause mom (who is Rh negative and doesn't have the proteins) to start making antibodies that bind to the baby's red blood cells and begins to break them apart, causing severe medical problems.

What forces keep red blood cells apart?

Red blood cells are kept apart by repulsive forces between their negatively charged surfaces known as electrostatic repulsion. This force prevents the cells from clumping together, allowing them to flow smoothly through blood vessels. Additionally, the presence of proteins on the cell membrane helps to maintain the structure and integrity of red blood cells.

Do the formed elements of blood include defense proteins?

Formed elements of blood do not include the defense proteins known as antigens. The formed elements of blood are red blood cells (erythrocytes), white blood cells (leukocytes), and platelets (thrombocytes).
