following injuries except:
A. Pulmonary fibrosis
B. Acute respiratory distress syndrome
C. Atherosclerosis
D. Rheumatoid arthritis - ANSWER:Acute respiratory distress syndrome
In ___________, there is an outpouring of a watery, relatively protein-poor fluid that
derives either from the plasma or from the secretions of mesothelial cells lining the
peritoneal, pleural and pericardial cavities.
A. Fibrinous inflammation

Large (1 to 2 cm) subcutaneous hematomas also known as bruises. -
ANSWER:Ecchymosis
An uncommon, grave complication of labor and the immediate postpartum period;
this type of embolism releases fluid into the maternal circulation via tears in the
placental membrane and/or uterine vein rupture. - ANSWER:Amniotic fluid
embolism
_________ shock results from low cardiac output due to loss of blood or plasma
volume. - ANSWER:hypovolemic
During this stage of shock, reflex compensatory mechanisms are activated and vital
organ perfusion is maintained.
, A. Nonprogressive
B. Progressive
C. Irreversible
D. Final stage - ANSWER:Nonprogressive
These hypersensitivity disorders involve antigen-antibody complexes that are formed
in the circulation and may deposit in blood vessels, leading to complement activation
and acute inflammation. - ANSWER:Immune complex mediated (type 3)
hypersensitivity
Anaphylaxis, allergies and bronchial asthma (atopic forms) are prototypical disorders
of this type of hypersensitivity: - ANSWER:Immediate (type I) hypersensitivity
This syndrome is characterized by dry eyes and dry mouth, resulting from immune-
mediated destruction of the lacrimal and salivary glands. - ANSWER:Sjogren
syndrome

A. Evasion of cell death
B. Development of sustained angiogenesis C. Self-sufficiency in growth signals
D. All of the above - ANSWER:All of the above
These cells are capable of destroying tumor cells without previous sensitization and
may provide the first line of defense against tumor cells. - ANSWER:natural killer
cells
This group of diseases is characterized by defects in collagen synthesis or structure;
they are all single-gene disorders with the mode of inheritance encompassing both
autosomal dominant and recessive patterns. - ANSWER:Ehlers-Danlos syndrome
Congenital heart defects, simian crease, mental retardation and abundant neck skin
are all characteristics of this Trisomy. - ANSWER:Trisomy 21
A term referring to the accumulation of edema fluid in the fetus during intrauterine
growth - ANSWER:Fetal hydrops
The most common renal neoplasm of childhood is _________. - ANSWER:Wilms
A nutritional disease that occurs when protein deprivation is relatively greater than
the reduction in total calories. This disease is also characterized by generalized or
dependent edem - ANSWER:Kwashiorkor
A deficiency in ___________ results in night blindess, squamous metaplasia and
vulnerability to infection. - ANSWER:Vitamin A
