NURS 5315 UTA EXAM 1 QUESTIONS WITH DETAILED
VERIFIED ANSWERS; ALREADY GRADED A; 2025
-blastoma - correct answer- from blasts or immature cells-
neuroblastoma
-oma - correct answer- benign tumor- lipoma
acid base balance effect on K+ - correct answer- hydrogen enters
cell, allowing potassium to escape during acidosis, visa versa for alkalosis
Adrenergic agents effect on K+ - correct answer- albuterol, beta
blockers, and alpha adrenergic antagonists cause K+ movement into the
cell. Alpha adrenergic receptors shift K+ out of the cell
Allele - correct answer- Paired genes on autosomal chromosomes
Alpha Fetoprotein Origin - correct answer- Liver and germ cell
tumors
Antidiuretic hormone - correct answer- Secreted by pituitary gland
in response to water deficit, Na excess, or hypotension. Causes kidneys
to reabsorb water, increasing plasma volume
, Atrophy - correct answer- E. Cells decrease in size
P. Still functional
Physiologic: thymus gland in early childhood
Pathological: disuse
Autosomal chromosomes - correct answer- first 22 of 23
chromosomes
Beta Human Chorionic gonadotropin origin - correct answer- germ
cell tumors
Breast ca metastasis - correct answer- Liver, lungs, brain, bones
calcium and albumin - correct answer- When blood levels of albumin
are low, serum calcium levels will also be low as there is less protein
available for binding
calcium and ionized calcium - correct answer- acidosis increases
ionized Ca+
alkalosis decreases ionized Ca+ and may cause symptoms of
hypocalcemia
