Phagocytosis - Answer is the process by which a cell—often a phagocyte or a protist—engulfs
a solid particle to form an internal compartment known as a phagosome.
Chronic Inflammation - Answer Define:
Chronic inflammation is inflammation of prolonged duration in which continuing inflammation,
tissue injury, and healing, often by fibrosis, proceed simultaneously
Characterized by:
Infiltration with mononuclear cells (macrophages, lymphocytes & plasma cells)
Tissue destruction (induced by products of inflammatory cells)
Repair (involving new vessel proliferation (angiogenesis) and fibrosis
Neutrophil extracellular traps - Answer (NETs) are made of processed chromatin bound to
granular and selected cytoplasmic proteins. NETs are released by white blood cells called
neutrophils, maybe as a last resort, to control microbial infections
The major cell types that produce mediators of acute inflammation - Answer tissue
macrophages
dendritic cells
mast cells
2 major vasoactive amines are - Answer Histamine
serotonin
A nurse recalls that monocytes are blood cells that mature (differentiate) into:
A. Macrophages
B. Neutrophils
C. Eosinophils
D. Mast cells - Answer A. Macrophages
, B. Lymphocyte
C. Macrophage
D. Neutrophil - Answer D. Neutrophil
While reviewing lab results, the nurse recalls the most abundant cells in the blood are:
A. Leukocytes
B. Lymphocytes
C. Erythrocytes
D. Thrombocytes - Answer C. Erythrocytes
Which electrolyte will the nurse check to ensure normal platelet functioning?
A. Sodium
B. Potassium
C. Magnesium
D. Calcium - Answer D. Calcium
Fibrinolysis is mediated by:
A. Heparin
B. Fibrinogen
C. Plasmin
D. Albumin - Answer C. Plasmin
38-year-old man has had headaches and nausea for the past 2 months. Laboratory findings
show hypercalcemia and hypophosphatemia and normal serum albumin. Urine microscopic
analysis shows deposition of calcium salts in the renal tubular epithelium. Which of the
following processes has most likely produced this change in the kidney?
A, Dystrophic calcification
B. Renal tubular atrophy
C. Autophagocytosis
d. Metastatic calcification
e. Cellular aging - Answer
