In regards to chromosomal mutation, nondisjunction is known as what? -
(answer)Failure of homologous chromosomes to separate during cell division
What is an example of an autosomal-dominant disease? - (answer)Huntington's
disease
What is an example of an autosomal-recessive disease? - (answer)Cystic fibrosis
What is an example of an X-linked condition? - (answer)Red - green color
blindness
What is an example of multifactorial inheritance? - (answer)Pyloric stenosis
,Knowing physiologic signs of injury you might expect the following system is
consistent with systemic manifestations of cellular injury during a myocardial
infarction (select all that apply)
A. Elevated aspartate
aminotransferase (AST/SGOT)
C. Increased leukocytes
D. Pain
E. Increase heart rate
F. Fever
G. Elevated Creatinine Kinase
H. Elevated alanin aminostransferase (ALT/SGPT) - (answer)A. elevated aspartate
aminotransferase
C. increased leukocytes
E. increased HR
G. elevated creatinine kinase
H. elevated alanin aminostransferase
,The nurse teaching an elderly client about the aging process includes which
changes that occur as part of the normal aging process? (select all that apply)
A. Increase in total body potassium concentration
B. Increased gastric emptying
C. Decreased muscle tone
D. Wrinkling and atrophy of the epidermis
E. Increase in peripheral resistance to blood flow
F. Increased formation of autoantibodies - (answer)A. Decreased muscle tone,
wrinkling in atrophy of the epidermis
E. increase in peripheral resistance to bloodflow
F. increased formation of auto antibodies
What else is it about the skin that protects individuals from injury and disease? -
(answer)Pathogens can be sloughed off by mechanical means, such as falling off in
, dead skin cells, coughing or sneezing, vomiting, or flushing from the urinary tract
in urine.
How might the characteristics of skin and the bodily fluids associated with it also
help to protect us from infection? - (answer)There is a low pH on the skin and
stomach that generally inhibits microorganisms
If inflammation is considered a first responder and may be considered to be a hero,
at least when it is in a controlled state, what heroic acts may be attributed to it?
How might the swelling associated with inflammation actually help with the
healing process? Erythema and warmth at a site of injury typically cause
discomfort, but how might one take solace in the fact that the response is being
initiated? - (answer)It prevents and/or limits infection and additional damage by
initiating the influx of plasma, plasma proteins, plasma enzymes, and the
distribution of leukocytes from the blood vessels to the injury. It recruits members
of the adaptive immunity community to launch a more specific defense against the
pathogens and enhances the healing process.
