NURS 611 Advanced Pathophysiology
Exam 1
Main ECF ion. - answers✔✔Sodium
Main ICF ion. - answers✔✔Potassium
Organelle that produces ATP. - answers✔✔Mitochondria
Organelles responsible for protein synthesis. - answers✔✔Ribosomes
Organelles that degrade and recycle waste. - answers✔✔Lysosomes
Organelles that break down chemicals into H202, produces free radicals. -
answers✔✔Peroxisomes
Organelle responsible for packaging and distribution. - answers✔✔Golgi Apparatus
Organelle that synthesizes steroids and detoxification. - answers✔✔Smooth Endoplasmic
Reticulum
Impermeable junction; strength. - answers✔✔Tight Junction
, Junction that allows for conductivity, synchronizes contractions of cardiac muscle through ionic
coupling. - answers✔✔Gap Junction
Junctions that hold cells together by continuous bands or belts of epithelial sheets or button-
like points of contact. - answers✔✔Desmosomes
Non-energy forms of transport. - answers✔✔Diffusion, Facilitated Diffusion, and Osmosis
Energy-requiring movement of molecules across a membrane, example is Na/K pump. -
answers✔✔Active Transport
Causes cells to swell. - answers✔✔Hypotonic Fluid
Causes cells to srhink. - answers✔✔Hypertonic Fluid
How many ATP are produced in aerobic respiration? - answers✔✔36 ATP
How much ATP can anaerobic respiration make? - answers✔✔2 ATP
#1 cause of cellular injury. - answers✔✔Hypoxia
Indication of cell death. Build up leads to metabolic acidosis. - answers✔✔Lactic Acid
Caused by free radicals produced by peroxisomes. Antioxidants such as fresh fruits and
vegetables give an electron to an unpaired molecule. - answers✔✔Reactive Oxidative Stress
