Nurs 5315 UTA Exam 1 Latest Update 2023- 2024 93 Questions and Verified Correct Answers Guaranteed Success
-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
- 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
calcium and phosphorus relationship - CORRECT ANSWER: inverse relationship- if
one increases= other one decreases, rehulated by PTH, Vit D, calcitonin
Carcino- - CORRECT ANSWER: from epithelial tissue- renal cell carcinoma
- / 2
Carcinoembryonic Antigen - CORRECT ANSWER: GI, pancreas, lung, breast tumors
Carcinoma in situ - CORRECT ANSWER: preinvasive epithelial malignant tumors of
glandular or squamous cells- cervix
Carrier - CORRECT ANSWER: Person who has a diseased gene but is phenotypically
normal
Caseous Necrosis - CORRECT ANSWER: lung disease- usually TB- tissue looks like
clumped cheese
Cell lysis effect on K+ - CORRECT ANSWER: intracellular K+ is released into
bloodstream
Coagulative Necrosis - CORRECT ANSWER: kidneys, heart, adrenals- secondary to
hypoxia
Codominance - CORRECT ANSWER: Both alleles exhibit (blood type AB)
Colorectal ca metastasis - CORRECT ANSWER: Liver, lungs
Dominant - CORRECT ANSWER: Trait seen in phenotype
Dysplasia - CORRECT ANSWER: E. Cells change in size, shape, organization
- AKA atypical hyperplasia, a disorderly proliferation
Physiologic: N/A
Pathologic: squamous dysplasia of cervix from HPV
dystrophic calcification - CORRECT ANSWER: accumulation of Ca in dead or dying
tissues calcium salt clump and harden- interfere with cellular structure and function r/t pulmonary TB, atherosclerosis, injured heart valves, chronic pancreatitis
Edema - CORRECT ANSWER: Accumulation of fluid within the interstitial space-
venous obstruction, Na and water retention C.M. can be localized or dependent, tightness of skin, facial swelling, rales, decreased wound healing, increased risk of pressure sores, weight gain
Effective arterial blood volume - CORRECT ANSWER: The amount of blood within the arterial space- ECF changes will cause changes in the EABV in the same direction
Ethanol - CORRECT ANSWER: E. mood altering drug, long term effects on liver and
nutritional status
- metabolized by liver, generates free radicals
- / 2
C.M. CNS depression, nutrient deficiencies-Mag, Vit B6, thiamine, PO4, inflammation and fatty infiltration of liver, hepatomegaly, leads to liver failure irreversible
