What causes the clinical manifestations of confusion, convulsions,
cerebral hemorrhage, and coma in hypernatremia?
A) high sodium in the blood vessels pulls water out of the brain cells
into the blood vessels, causing brain cells to shrink
B) high sodium in the brain cells pulls water out of the blood vessels
into the brain cells, causing them to swell
,C) high sodium in the blood vessels pulls potassium out of the brain
cells, which slows the synapses in the brain
D) high sodium in the blood vessels draws chloride into the brain cells
followed by water, causing the brain cells to swell
Ans: A- high sodium in the blood vessels pulls water out of the brain
cells into the blood vessels, causing brain cells to shrink
