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