NUR 355 EXAM 1 QUESTIONS AND
CORRECT ANSWERS (ALREADY
GRADED A+); VERIFIED ANSWERS;
________ _________ are secondary drug effects (all drugs
have them) whereas ___________ __________ are more
severe and are undesirable (ex: anaphylaxis) - correct
answer- side effects; adverse reactions
________ __________ drugs pass through the placenta
easier than polar drugs. - correct answer- lipid-
soluble
__________ determine the proteins created by the cell. -
correct answer- genes
___________ _________ is when a disease is caused by a
combo of inherited susceptibility and environmental
factors that trigger a disorder. ex: diabetes or cancer -
correct answer- multifactorial inheritance
,___________ ___________ _________ is when cells
aggregate (wall-off) and change to epithelioid cells. They
are surrounded by lymphocytes and connective tissue
that forms a scar. ex: TB - correct answer-
chronic inflammation granuloma
____________ ___________ is ______________ (specific)
using T lymphocytes and B lymphocytes which have
memory for specific antigens. They are developed with
exposure to antigens. - correct answer-
adaptive immunity; sensitized
____________ _____________ is a ____________
mechanism that defends the body against all types of
pathogens immediately (ex: mucus, skin, ciliated cells,
macrophages) - correct answer- innate
immunity; nonspecific
_____________ is a chemical that is in our essential
amino acids. It is a precursor to ____________. Carbs
trigger insulin to move amino acids, which converts to
_______________(why we get sleepy after a meal). Also
,why we crave carbs during stress. - correct answer-
tryptophan; serotonin; melatonin
_____________ is common in older adults which means
farsightedness. __________ is also common in older
adults which is loss of hearing at high and low tones. -
correct answer- presbyopia; presbycusis
______________ can cause a decrease in the size of
thyroid gland and lower _______ (fewer calories are
required to maintain body weight) - correct
answer- hypothyroidism; BMR
______________ cells (fertilized egg) have potential to
become any type of cell, which is called embryonic stem
cells, and can be treatment for many diseases. No
incompatibility with these cells because they lack
____________ ____________. Controversial due to
ethical views. - correct answer- Blastocyst;
surface antigens
, ______________ pharmacodynamics is when drugs affect
multiple receptors which then affects multiple body
systems. ex: epinephrine affects three different receptors:
alpha 1, beta 1, and beta 2 - correct answer-
nonselective
_______________ is a group of NSAID's that inhibit both
COX-1 and COX-2 enzymes that are needed for the
biosynthesis of _____________. An example of this is
___________ (acetylsalicylic acid) that has an anti
inflammatory response, anticoagulant, and antipyretic
effects. Helps to reduce swelling, pain and stiffness in
joints. - correct answer- Salicylates (comes
from salicylic acid); prostaglandins; aspirin
_______________ pharmacodynamics is when drugs
affect multiple receptor sites. ex: cholinergic receptors are
located in the bladder, heart, bv, stomach bronchi and
eyes. - correct answer- nonspecific
2 examples of broad spectrum antibacterials: - correct
answer- tetracycline, cephalosporins
