NR 283 PATHOPHYSIOLOGY EXAM WITH PRECISE
ACCURATE SOLUTIONS /UPDATED EXAMS
1. 1st line of defense - ANSWER-Barriers: Skin, Mucous Membranes, Gastric juices,
Normal Flora, and Cilia
2. 2nd line of defense - ANSWER-Inflammation and Phagocytosis
3. 3rd line of defense - ANSWER-B-Cells and T-Cells
4. Active artificial immunity - ANSWER-immunizations
5. Active Immunity - ANSWER-activates the immune system
6. Active natural immunity - ANSWER-natural exposure to antigen
7. Apoptosis - ANSWER-Programmed cell death, normal occurrence in the body
8. Atrophy - ANSWER-Decrease in the size of the cells, results in reduced tissue mass
9. Autosomal Dominant Disorders - ANSWER-Only takes one gene for disease to show.
There are no carriers, either have disease or don't. Marfan Syndrome, Huntington's,
Familial Hypercholesterolemia
10. Autosomal Recessive Disorders - ANSWER-Has to have two recessive genes to have
disease, only one recessive gene to be carrier ex: Cystic fibrosis, PKU
(phenylketonuria), Tay-Sachs
, 11. B-Cells - ANSWER-Responsible for production of antibodies, can clone themselves to
tag antigens, can become memory B-cells to remember antigen(pathogen)
12. Blood pH - ANSWER-7.35-7.45
13. Blood pH less than 7.35 - ANSWER-metabolic or respiratory acidosis
14. Blood pH more than 7.45 - ANSWER-metabolic or respiratory alkalosis
15. Ca2+ Normal Range - ANSWER-8.5-10.5 mEq/L
16. Chromosomal Disorder - ANSWER-not inherited, theres a problem on the
chromosome
17. Cl- Normal Range - ANSWER-98-106 mEq/L
18. Co2 normal range - ANSWER-45-35
19. Cycle of Infection - ANSWER-Pathogens, Reservoir, Portal of Exit, Mode of
Transmission, Portal of Entry, Host B
20. Cystic fibrosis - ANSWER-autosomal recessive disorder that causes thick mucous
secretions
21. Down's Syndrome - ANSWER-Trisomy 21
