Prader-Willi Syndrome - ANS ✓Caused by a lack of genetic material in the 15 pair of
chromosomes. Usually inherited from the father. The leading genetic cause of obesity.
The degree of mental retardation varies, but is usually in the mild range. Students with
Prader-Willi syndrome can be rigid and oppositional. They do not respond well to
sudden changes in their routine. It can also result in low muscle tone, short stature,
incomplete sexual development, cognitive disabilities, problem behaviors, and a chronic
feeling of hunger that can lead to excessive eating and life-threatening obesity.
DiGeorge Syndrome - ANS ✓caused by missing piece of chromosome 22, affects the
heart, immune system, parathyroid glands, can be inherited from parents, DGS triad:
conotruncal cardiac anomalies, hypoplastic thymus, and hypocalcemia. can cause cleft
lip, hearing loss, learning difficulties

reaction
plasma proteins - ANS ✓albumin, fibrinogen, globulins. Proteins function to control
oncotic pressure, transport substances (hemoglobin, lipids, calcium), and promote
inflammation and the complement cascade.
action potential stages - ANS ✓1) resting potential = Na+ ions outside while K+ ions
inside
2) depolarization = Na+ channels open & Na+ comes in; cell becomes more positive
(meets threshold of -55 mV to fire)
3) repolarization = K+ channels open & K+ goes out; cell becomes more negative
4) undershoot = cell goes below resting potential; K+ channels are slow to close
5) return to resting potential = both channels close; Na+ & K+ pumps restore
concentration gradient
ABG interpretation - ANS ✓pH 7.35-7.45
PaCO2 35-45
HCO3 22-26
ROME- Respiratory Opposite Metabolic Equal
active transport - ANS ✓Energy-requiring(energy often supplied by ATP) process that
