2024 PATHOPHYSIOLOGY
RASMUSSEN EXAM 1 WITH
CORRECT ANSWERS
What is a hypotonic solution? - CORRECT ANSWERS-the solution has a lower
solute concentration than the cell so water moves into the cell causing plant
cells to swell and animal cells to swell and burst
passive immunity - CORRECT ANSWERS-Transfer of performed antibodies
against a specific antigen from protected or immunized individual to an
unprotected or non-immunized individual
Examples of passive immunity - CORRECT ANSWERS-IgA in breast milk,
maternal IgG crossing placenta, antitoxin, serotherapy (direct injection of
antibodies)
Potassium Value normal range( intercellular cation) - CORRECT ANSWERS-
3.5-5.0 mEq/L
What is allostasis? - CORRECT ANSWERS-ability to achieve stability through
change
What is allostatic load? - CORRECT ANSWERS-the long-term negative impact
of the stress response on the body
What is allostatic overload? - CORRECT ANSWERS--Overactivation of
adaptive systems
-Highly individualized
function of mitochondria - CORRECT ANSWERS-Cellular respiration, makes
ATP.
What is a isotonic solution? - CORRECT ANSWERS-The concentration of
solutes is equal inside and outside the cell so water moves across the
membrane in both directions maintaining cell size
What is a hypertonic solution? - CORRECT ANSWERS-The solution has a
higher solute concentration than the cell so water moves out of the cell and
into the solution causing the cell to plasmolyze (shrivel)
, Sodium value normal range (major cation of extracellular fluid) - CORRECT
ANSWERS-135-145 mEq/L
Calcium value normal range - CORRECT ANSWERS-9-11 mg/dL OR 4.5-5.5
mEq/L
Phosphate value normal range - CORRECT ANSWERS-2.5-4.5 mg/dL
Magnesium value normal range - CORRECT ANSWERS-1.5-2.5 mEq/L
Bicarbonate value normal range (second most abundant anion in blood) -
CORRECT ANSWERS-23-30 mEq/L
Condition of low potassium < 3.5 mEq/L - CORRECT ANSWERS-hypokalemia
Condition of high potassium >5 mEq/L - CORRECT ANSWERS-Hyperkalemia
Condition of high phosphate > 4.5 mg/dL - CORRECT ANSWERS-
Hyperphosphatemia
Condition of low chloride <96 mEq/L - CORRECT ANSWERS-hypochloremia
Condition of high chloride > 106 mEq/L - CORRECT ANSWERS-
Hyperchloremia
Condition of low magnesium <1.5 mEq/L - CORRECT ANSWERS-
hypomagnesemia
Condition of high magnesium >2.5 mEq/L - CORRECT ANSWERS-
Hypermagesemia
condition of low calcium< 9mg/dL - CORRECT ANSWERS-hypocalcemia
condition of high calcium > 11mg/dL - CORRECT ANSWERS-hypercalcemia
Pathophysiology - CORRECT ANSWERS-the study of abnormalities in
physiologic functioning of living beings
