A delta fiber - Correct Answers-Myelinated fibers that transmit sharp, acute pain.
Abnormally slow respirations - Correct Answers-Lead to increased carbonic acid in the body.
Acid-base imbalance from impaired expiration due to emphysema - Correct Answers-Results
in respiratory acidosis.
Actinic keratoses - Correct Answers-They predispose to malignant melanoma.
Acupoints - Correct Answers-In traditional Asian medicine, these are usually located on
designated meridians.
Acute Illness - Correct Answers-A short-term illness that develops very quickly with perhaps
a high fever or severe pain.
Acute inflammation substance - Correct Answers-A substance normally not found in the
blood, but appears with acute inflammation and necrosis within 24 to 48 hours is C-reactive
protein.
Acute necrotizing fasciitis - Correct Answers-Rapidly causes extensive tissue necrosis and
toxic shock.
acute pain - Correct Answers-Pain impulses usually transmitted by myelinated A delta fibers.
Adhesions - Correct Answers-Fibrous bands that can form between tissues and organs after
injury.
Advanced age - Correct Answers-A factor that can inhibit healing.
Adverse effect of antihistamine - Correct Answers-Dry mouth and drowsiness after
administration.
Alkalosis - Correct Answers-Increases irritability and spontaneous stimulation of nerves.
,Allergic response cells - Correct Answers-Eosinophils are significantly increased in numbers
during an allergic response.
alternative therapy - Correct Answers-Therapies such as acupuncture, chiropractic therapy,
and osteopathy.
An abscess contains - Correct Answers-purulent exudate.
analgesic - Correct Answers-A common medication administered to control a moderate level
of pain.
Analgesics - Correct Answers-Substances that act to reduce pain.
Ankylosis and Deformity - Correct Answers-Ankylosis and deformity develop in rheumatoid
arthritis because fibrosis occurs in the joint.
Antagonistic drugs - Correct Answers-Drugs that act as an antidote when necessary.
Antiseptic vs. disinfectant - Correct Answers-Antiseptic is used on living tissue, whereas
disinfectant is designed for nonliving surfaces.
Antiviral drugs - Correct Answers-Medications that reduce the rate of viral replication.
Anxiety attack causes hyperventilation - Correct Answers-Leads to decreased PCO2.
Apoptosis - Correct Answers-Preprogrammed cell self-destruction.
Application of ice to an injured knee reduces edema by - Correct Answers-causing local
vasoconstriction.
Area lacking blood vessels and nerves - Correct Answers-Epidermis.
Articular Cartilage Damage - Correct Answers-The articular cartilage is damaged in
rheumatoid arthritis by enzymatic destruction by the pannus.
Aspirin (ASA) is discouraged for treatment of viral infection in children because of - Correct
Answers-the risk of developing Reye's syndrome.
Atrial natriuretic peptide - Correct Answers-Secreted by heart muscle cells and helps to
control water and sodium balance.
Atrophy - Correct Answers-A type of cellular adaptation in which there is a decrease in cell
size.
, Autoimmune disease - Correct Answers-failure of the immune system to distinguish self
from nonself.
Autoimmune disorder - Correct Answers-A disease where the immune system attacks the
body's own cells, such as pemphigus and scleroderma.
Bacteremia - Correct Answers-Microbes present in the blood.
Bacterial capsule function - Correct Answers-The presence of the bacterial capsule protects
the microbe from phagocytosis.
Bacterial cluster type - Correct Answers-Bacteria that form an irregular cluster of spheres are
called staphylococci.
Bacterial endospore survival - Correct Answers-A bacterial endospore can survive high
temperatures and a dry environment.
Bacteriostatic drugs - Correct Answers-Designed to inhibit or slow down the growth of
microbes but not necessarily kill them.
Bicarbonate ion levels decrease - Correct Answers-Indicates a shift in acid-base balance.
Bicarbonate ion levels increase - Correct Answers-Indicates a shift in acid-base balance.
Bicarbonate-carbonic acid buffer system - Correct Answers-Helps maintain serum pH,
controlled by the lungs and kidneys.
Binary fission - Correct Answers-A method of asexual reproduction where a parent cell
divides into two daughter cells.
Bioelectric therapy - Correct Answers-A therapy that induces the production of endorphins
to help relieve pain.
Biosynthetic skin substitute advantages - Correct Answers-The advantages of applying a
biosynthetic skin substitute to a large area of full-thickness burns include reduced risk of
infection, decreased loss of plasma protein and fluid, and more rapid healing.
Bone tissue - Correct Answers-The two types are spongy and calcified.
Broad-spectrum bactericidal agent - Correct Answers-Would be expected to destroy many
gram-positive and gram-negative bacteria.
Budding of a daughter cell - Correct Answers-A process where a new organism develops
from an outgrowth or bud on the parent organism.
