NSG 3280(PATHO) EXAM 2 REVIEW
2025/2026 QUESTIONS AND ANSWERS
100% PASS.
During a dermatology rotation, a group of medical students are provided with a case study of a
burn patient who sustained significant damage to the skin. The supervising dermatologist
emphasized the multiple crucial functions of the skin and how each might be compromised due
to the injury. The students were then challenged to identify a function that is NOT primarily
associated with the skin, based on their learning. Which of the following functions is NOT a
primary role of the skin? - ANS Vitamin B production
In a dermatology seminar, Dr. Rivera presented a case of a patient with a rare genetic disorder
affecting the skin's structural integrity. The patient's stratum corneum lacks the typical strength
and resilience observed in healthy individuals. Drawing upon this case, Dr. Rivera quizzes the
participants about the structural component responsible for providing the stratum corneum
with its exceptional structural strength within the epidermis. Which of the following is the
correct component? - ANS Keratinocytes
In a renowned dermatology conference, Dr.
Simmons presents a case study of a patient with a genetic condition that hampers the skin's
natural renewal process, making the skin appear prematurely aged. Citing this case, Dr.
Simmons postulates the importance of the skin's regenerative capacity and asks the attendees
to identify the specific layer in the skin where the majority of mitotic division takes place,
facilitating the continuous renewal and repair of the epidermis. Which of the following is the
correct layer? - ANS Stratum basale
