Describe how your body responds to an infection. T cells produce cytokines, which stimulate B cells. B cells produce
antibodies.
Identify role of DNA changes in congenital Mutations in genes or chromosomal abnormalities
abnormalities.
How does development disrupts congenital Alterations of DNA
abnormalities?
Describes factors that disrupt homeostasis and (ex) Fluid and electrolyte shifts can cause n/v or dysrhythmias.
how disruptions affect wellbeing.
Explain RAAS Renin-angiotensin-aldosterone system
1. Reduce blood flow causes kidneys to release renin
> produce angiotensin I > converts angiotensin I to angiotensin II >
vasoconstriction > release aldosterone > kidneys conserve sodium and
water > Result less water lost in urine and blood pressure maintained.
DKA increased anion gap, decreased HCO3
How do kidneys compensate for alkalosis retain H and excrete HCO3
