NR507 ADVANCED PATHOPHYSIOLOGY WEEK
TWO DISTRIBUTION OF BODY FLUIDS
QUESTIONS WITH 100% ACCURATE ANSWERS

The osmolality of the intracellular fluid normally is_______________________ the extracellular fluid
because water crosses cell membranes ____________
through aquaporins - Accurate answers The same as;freely

_________________Is primarily responsible for the plasma oncotic pressure - Accurate answers
Albumin

Thirst prompts fluid intake through action of _____________ located in the __________ - Accurate
answers osmoreceptors; hypothalamus

Isotonic fluid excess causes ____________ - Accurate answers hypervolemia

Renal compensation for an acid-base balance is _________; pulmonary compensation for an acid-base
balance is ___________ - Accurate answers slow; fast

Fluid moves out of capillaries by ___________ and into or out of cells by - Accurate answers
filtration; osmosis

Hypercapnia means an excess of ____________ in the blood - Accurate answers carbon dioxide

The most dangerous effect of hyperkalemia is its action on the ___________ - Accurate answers
heart

Tumor grows in lymph node - Accurate answers lymphatic obstruction

Right heart failure - Accurate answers Increased capillary hydrostatic pressure

Infected wound - Accurate answers Increased capillary permeability

Clot in a vein - Accurate answers Increased capillary hydrostatic pressure

Protein malnutrition - Accurate answers Decreased plasma oncotic pressure

Bee sting - Accurate answers Increased capillary permeability

End-stage kidney disease - Accurate answers Increased capillary hydrostatic pressure

Who has a greater percentage of body weight as water: a lean woman porn Or an obese woman? -
Accurate answers A lean woman

, Who has a greater percentage of body weight as water: an infant or an adolescent? - Accurate answers
An infant

Who has a greater percentage of body weight as water if both person weigh the same: a woman or a
man? - Accurate answers A man

Who has a greater percentage of body weight as water if both persons weigh the same: a 56-year-old
man or a 78-year-old man? - Accurate answers A 56-year-old man

Where is the potassium ion concentration greater: extracellular fluid or intracellular fluid? - Accurate
answers Intercellular fluid

Where is the sodium ion concentration greater: extracellular fluid or intracellular fluid? - Accurate
answers Extracellular fluid

Which is greater: the pH of an acid solution or the pH of an alkaline solution? - Accurate answers
The pH of an alkaline solution

Which is greater: the respiratory rate during metabolic acidosis or the respiratory rate during metabolic
alkalosis? - Accurate answers The respiratory rate during metabolic acidosis

Aldosterone - Accurate answers Angiotensin II, increased plasma potassium; increased renal
sodium and water reabsorption; increases renal excretion of potassium and hydrogen ions

Parathyroid hormone - Accurate answers Low plasma calcium; Increases resorption of bone;
stimulates reabsorption of calcium; inhibits renal reabsorption of phosphate

Atrial natriuretic peptide - Accurate answers Increased volume in the cardiac atria ; Increases renal
sodium and water excretion

Calcitonin - Accurate answers High plasma calcium; Inhibits osteoclasts in bone

Antidiuretic hormone - Accurate answers Increased plasma osmolality, substantially decreased
arterial blood pressure

What is the difference between interstitial fluid and extracellular fluid? - Accurate answers
Interstitial fluid is a component of extracellular fluid. Extracellular fluid consists of the fluid inside the
blood vessels (intravascular fluid) and the fluid between the cells (interstitial fluid) , as well as minor
components such as lymph and various secretions ( transcellular fluids)

What is the difference between a volatile acid and a non-volatile acid? - Accurate answers A
volatile acid (carbonic acid) is excreted by the lungs, but a nonvolatile acid (metabolic acid) is excreted
by the kidneys

What is the difference between acidemia in acidosis? - Accurate answers Acidemia is the state in
which the pH of arterial blood is less than 7.35, but acidosis is the condition of having too much acid or
too little base, regardless of pH
