Question 10 options:
a) Decrease blood pressure and increase sodium and water excretion.
b) Increase blood pressure and decrease sodium and water excretion.
c) Increase the heart rate and decrease potassium excretion.

Question 11 (5 points)
What causes the clinical manifestations of confusion, convulsions, cerebral hemorrhage, and
coma in hypernatremia?
Question 11 options:
a) High sodium in the blood vessels pulls water out of the brain cells into the blood vessels, causing bra
cells to shrink.
b) High sodium in the brain cells pulls water out of the blood vessels into the brain cells, causing them
swell.
c) High sodium in the blood vessels pulls potassium out of the brain cells, which slows the synapses in
the brain.
