Overview
I'm working on a science multi-part question and need an explanation and answer to help me learn.
1. What is the HLA complex? Why is it so variable in our species?
2. Discuss the terms 'biocultural evolution', 'balanced polymorphism', heterozygote advantage' using sickle cell anemia as an example?
3. What is the Bombay Blood type- and what is its relationship to the ABO system?
4. Using the ABO blood system as an example- discuss the terms antigen and antibody.
