A 35-year-old female ultramarathon runner is admitted to
|\ |\ |\ |\ |\ |\ |\ |\
the hospital following a
|\ |\ |\
day-long, 50-mile race because her urinary volume is
|\ |\ |\ |\ |\ |\ |\ |\
drastically decreased and her urine |\ |\ |\ |\
is dark red. Tests indicate that she is in the initiating
|\ |\ |\ |\ |\ |\ |\ |\ |\ |\ |\
phase of acute tubular necrosis.
|\ |\ |\ |\
Why is her urine red?
|\ |\ |\ |\
A) Hematuria
|\
B) Hemoglobinuria
|\
C) Myoglobinuria
|\
D) Kidney bleeding - CORRECT ANSWERS
|\ |\ |\ |\ |\ |\
✔✔Myoglobinuria
During a discussion on cellular components and their
|\ |\ |\ |\ |\ |\ |\ |\
function, a student asked the |\ |\ |\ |\
instructor the purpose of messenger RNA (mRNA). Of the
|\ |\ |\ |\ |\ |\ |\ |\ |\
following, which is the |\ |\ |\
most accurate answer? |\ |\
A) Transports amino acids to the site of protein synthesis
|\ |\ |\ |\ |\ |\ |\ |\ |\
,B) Acts as an inner nuclear support membrane for a rigid
|\ |\ |\ |\ |\ |\ |\ |\ |\ |\ |\
network of |\
protein filaments that bind DNA to the nucleus
|\ |\ |\ |\ |\ |\ |\
C) Performs an active role of protein synthesis, where
|\ |\ |\ |\ |\ |\ |\ |\ |\
mRNA molecules direct
|\ |\
the assembly of proteins on ribosomes to the cytoplasm
|\ |\ |\ |\ |\ |\ |\ |\
D) Assists cells in forming neoplastic progression by
|\ |\ |\ |\ |\ |\ |\ |\
altering the response of |\ |\ |\
chromatin in the nuclear matrix - CORRECT ANSWERS
|\ |\ |\ |\ |\ |\ |\ |\
✔✔Performs an active role of protein synthesis, where |\ |\ |\ |\ |\ |\ |\ |\

The nurse is providing care for a client with a diagnosis of
|\ |\ |\ |\ |\ |\ |\ |\ |\ |\ |\ |\
cirrhosis, and she notes that |\ |\ |\ |\
the client's sclerae are jaundiced. The nurse recalls that
|\ |\ |\ |\ |\ |\ |\ |\ |\
jaundice is a pigment that can |\ |\ |\ |\ |\
accumulate in which part of the cell? |\ |\ |\ |\ |\ |\
A) Nucleus
|\
B) Cytoplasm
|\
C) Golgi apparatus
|\ |\
D) Rough endoplasmic reticulum - CORRECT ANSWERS
|\ |\ |\ |\ |\ |\ |\
✔✔Cytoplasm
,A 14-year-old female has been experiencing severe
|\ |\ |\ |\ |\ |\ |\
internal cramps in the region of the |\ |\ |\ |\ |\ |\
pelvis and weight loss.She has been admitted with rectal
|\ |\ |\ |\ |\ |\ |\ |\ |\
bleeding.The physician has |\ |\
diagnosed her with inflammatory bowel disease (IBD). |\ |\ |\ |\ |\ |\ |\
She asks the nurse what causes
|\ |\ |\ |\ |\
this disease. The nurse will base her response knowing
|\ |\ |\ |\ |\ |\ |\ |\ |\
that IBD has been linked to
|\ |\ |\ |\ |\
A) liver involvement in faulty glycogen stores.
|\ |\ |\ |\ |\ |\
B) endoplasmic reticulum stress in the gastrointestinal
|\ |\ |\ |\ |\ |\ |\
system.
C) oversecretion of insulin from the beta cells in the
|\ |\ |\ |\ |\ |\ |\ |\ |\ |\
pancreas.
D) infiltration of the gastrointestinal tract by bacterial
|\ |\ |\ |\ |\ |\ |\
toxins. - CORRECT ANSWERS ✔✔endoplasmic reticulum
|\ |\ |\ |\ |\ |\
stress in the gastrointestinal system.
|\ |\ |\ |\
A professor is teaching a group of students about the role
|\ |\ |\ |\ |\ |\ |\ |\ |\ |\ |\
of mitochondria within
|\ |\
the cell. Which of the following statements is true of
|\ |\ |\ |\ |\ |\ |\ |\ |\ |\
mitochondria?
A) They are the site of adenosine triphosphate (ATP)
|\ |\ |\ |\ |\ |\ |\ |\ |\
production.
B) The number of mitochondria in a cell is equal to the
|\ |\ |\ |\ |\ |\ |\ |\ |\ |\ |\ |\
number of nuclei. |\ |\
, C) They are replicated within the smooth endoplasmic
|\ |\ |\ |\ |\ |\ |\ |\
reticulum (ER). |\
D) Mitochondrial DNA is inherited
|\ |\ |\ |\
patrilineally. - CORRECT ANSWERS ✔✔They are the site of |\ |\ |\ |\ |\ |\ |\ |\ |\
adenosine triphosphate (ATP) production. |\ |\ |\
A patient has been diagnosed with a neurodegenerative
|\ |\ |\ |\ |\ |\ |\ |\
disease called multiple |\ |\
sclerosis (MS). The physician explains to the patient that
|\ |\ |\ |\ |\ |\ |\ |\ |\
this disease may be caused by
|\ |\ |\ |\ |\
dysregulated apoptosis. Later that day, the patient asks |\ |\ |\ |\ |\ |\ |\ |\
the nurse what this means. The
|\ |\ |\ |\ |\
nurse should reply, |\ |\
A) "The cells around your nerves don't know how to die
|\ |\ |\ |\ |\ |\ |\ |\ |\ |\ |\
correctly."
B) "The cytoplasm should neutralize the various apoptotic
|\ |\ |\ |\ |\ |\ |\
inhibitors but isn't
|\ |\ |\
working correctly." |\
C) "Dysregulated apoptosis has caused an excessive rate
|\ |\ |\ |\ |\ |\ |\ |\
of programmed cell death
|\ |\ |\
along the neuropathways."
|\ |\
D) "There is an inappropriately low rate of apoptosis
|\ |\ |\ |\ |\ |\ |\ |\ |\
occurring within the |\ |\
cells." - CORRECT ANSWERS ✔✔"Dysregulated apoptosis
|\ |\ |\ |\ |\ |\
has caused an excessive rate of programmed cell death
