His girlfriend was recently diagnosed with infectious
mononucleosis, which is caused by ________ and commonly
transmitted in ________.
-heterophil antibodies; blood
-Epstein Barr virus; saliva

-bacterial infection; monocytes - ANSWER--Epstein Barr virus;
saliva
The patient is diagnosed with Hodgkin type of lymphoma based
on the results of laboratory tests and study of the tumor cells. A
distinct characteristic of Hodgkin lymphoma is the presence of:
-Reed-Sternberg cells.
-Bence Jones proteins.
-M-type protein antibodies.
-Philadelphia chromosome. - ANSWER--Reed-Sternberg cells.
Manifestations of Hodgkin lymphoma that distinguish it from non-
Hodgkin lymphoma include:
,3|Page
-noncontiguous nodal spread.
-superficial lymphadenopathy.
-pruritus and night fevers.
-poor humoral antibody response. - ANSWER--pruritus and night
fevers.
Leukemias are classified according to the predominant cell type.
The myelogenous cell type of leukemia can:
-interfere with thrombocyte cell maturation.
-originate in marrow and infiltrate nodes.
-affect B and T stem cells in bone marrow.
-transform mature cells into immature ones. - ANSWER--interfere
with thrombocyte cell maturation.
A child has Down syndrome and has recently experienced
unexplained nose bleeds. His blood tests identify blast cells in the
peripheral smear. In addition to nose bleeds, his acute leukemia
will typically manifest all of the following EXCEPT:

, 4|Page
-hypogammaglobulinemia.
-bleeding due to thrombocytopenia. - ANSWER--
hypogammaglobulinemia.
In contrast to acute leukemias, chronic leukemias are
malignancies involving abnormal _________________ blood cells
in the marrow.
-production of undifferentiated
-proliferation of well-differentiated
-uncontrolled growth of immature
-replication of pluripotent precursor - ANSWER--proliferation of
well-differentiated
