NCTI A&P FINAL EXAM QUESTIONS AND
ANSWERS
Decompsition reaction -
correct answer ✅A reaction in which a single compound breaks
down to form two or more simpler substances (breaks substances
apart)
AB --> A+B
synthesis reaction -
correct answer ✅a reaction in which two or more substances
combine to form a new compound
2Na + Cl2 → 2NaCl
exchange reaction -
correct answer ✅Parts of the reacting molecules are shuffled
around to produce new products
AB + CD --> AD + CB
,NCTI A&P FINAL EXAM QUESTIONS AND
ANSWERS
Reversible reaction -
correct answer ✅a chemical reaction in which the products re-
form the original reactants
Organic components of the body -
correct answer ✅Carbohydrates, lipids (including phospholipids),
proteins, nucleotides and nucleic acids
types of cell division -
correct answer ✅mitosis and meiosis
mitosis -
correct answer ✅a type of cell division that results in two
daughter cells each having the same number and kind of
chromosomes as the parent nucleus, typical of ordinary tissue
growth
Meiosis -
correct answer ✅Cell division that produces reproductive cells in
sexually reproducing organisms
, NCTI A&P FINAL EXAM QUESTIONS AND
ANSWERS
Osmosis vs. Diffusion -
correct answer ✅Osmosis is movement of water from an area of
high concentration to low concentration, diffusion is a moment of
any atom from high to low concentration
isotonic solutions -
correct answer ✅any external solution that has the same solute
concentration and water concentration compared to body fluids.
0.9% sodium chloride
hypotonic solution -
correct answer ✅Hypotonic solutions have a lower concentration
of dissolved solutes than blood. An example of a hypotonic IV
solution is 0.45% Normal Saline (0.45% NaCl). When hypotonic IV
solutions are infused, it results in a decreased concentration of
dissolved solutes in the blood as compared to the intracellular
space.
RBC burts
