What is it called when cell's commit suicide/programmed cell
death? .....ANSWER.....Apoptosis
In carbon monoxide poisoning, what would we see and why?
.....ANSWER.....Tissue damage d/t CO binding on hemoglobin
preventing oxygen from being able to bind to those sites,
preventing tissue oxygenation
If ph is LOW, Bicarb is HIGH and CO2 is HIGH what condition
do we have? .....ANSWER.....Respiratory acidosis
,Page 2 of 250
How do molecules get intracellular or extracellular?
.....ANSWER.....Water molecules via osmosis, other molecules via
hydrostatic pressure
If a patient is vomiting a lot, what would they develop and why?
.....ANSWER.....Metabolic alkalosis - they are losing all gastric
acid contents and holding onto bicarb

we looking at? .....ANSWER.....Alpha fetal protein

Why does someone have rejection occur after an organ
transplant? .....ANSWER.....T helper cells release cytokines,

reaction? .....ANSWER.....Antibodies bind antigens on the cell
surface
What is an exotoxin? .....ANSWER.....This is released by bacteria
and causes you to get sick
What cells fight fungal infections? .....ANSWER.....Phagocytes, T
lymphocytes
Why is it that when you are stressed you are more at risk to get
sick? .....ANSWER.....Cortisol increases and causes T helper cells to
be suppressed (cortisol suppresses T1 cell)

working right - what will happen? .....ANSWER.....Filled up with
waste
