WGU pathophysiology D236-Exam Questions and Answers 2022/2023 What is Starling's Law of Capillary forces? How does this explain why a nutritionally deficient child would have edema? - ANSWER Starling's Law describes how fluids move across the capillary membrane. There are two major opposing forces that act to balance each other, hydrostatic pressure (pushing water out of the capillaries) and osmotic pressure (including oncontic pressure, which pushes fluid into the capillaries). Bot...

Microbe - Answer-A living thing that is too small to be seen by the naked eye; require a microscope to see them; includes many different life forms including bacteria, archea (often live in extreme environments), fungi, protists, viruses, and microscopic animals Microbiome - Answer-The totality of microbes, their genetic information, and the milieu in which they interact; typically consist of environmental or biological niches containing complex communities of microbes; including gut and to...

What is Starling's Law of Capillary forces? How does this explain why a nutritionally deficient child would have edema? - ANSWER Starling's Law describes how fluids move across the capillary membrane. There are two major opposing forces that act to balance each other, hydrostatic pressure (pushing water out of the capillaries) and osmotic pressure (including oncontic pressure, which pushes fluid into the capillaries). Both electrolytes and proteins (oncontic pressure) in the blood affe...

microbiota vs microbiome correct answer: microbiota - organisms microbiome - organisms + genes + genome The gut microbiota contains more than __ cells more than __ species correct answer: 200 trillion cells >1000 species The microbiome contains __x the cells in the human body The gut microbiome is __x larger than the human genome correct answer: 10x cells 150x genome Who came up with the official definition of microbiota? correct answer: Lederberg and McCray, 2001 Microbi...

Hereditary Breast and Ovarian Cancer correct answers BRCA 1/2 Breast 50-87% Second primary tumor 50-64% BRCA 1: 20-45% BRCA 2: 10-30% BRCA 2: Male breast 6-10% Li-Fraumeni Syndrome correct answers -Sarcoma, breast, leukemia, adrenal and many others -May present in almost every way (ie all family members with same cancers or all with different) -Adrenocortical carcinoma considered pathognomonic -50% have some type by 30, 90% by age 60 -TP53 accounts for 70% of individuals Beckwit...

What is the reason that closely linked genes are typically inherited together? - ANSWER The likelihood of a crossover event between these two genes is low All female mammals have one active X chromosome per cell instead of two. What causes this? - ANSWER Activation of the XIST gene on the X chromosome that will become the Barr body In his transformation experiments, what did Griffith observe? - ANSWER Mixing a heat-killing pathogenic strain of bacteria with a living nonpathogenic strain ca...
