NUR 8022 Intro to Advanced Physiology
and Pathophysiology Exam Questions
With Solved Solutions.
Electrolytes - Answer -Inorganic ions in the protoplasm are electrolytes

-Most common electrolytes in the body are Na+, K+, and Cl-



Internal Environment - Answer -60% of the body is fluid

-Mostly inside the cells (ICF)

-Contains ions and nutrients to sustain life

-inorganic: ions: Na+, K+, Cl-

-organic: proteins, lipids, carbs

-Proper concentrations of O2, glucose, different ions, AA, fatty substances, and other constituents in this
environment essential to cell viability



ECF - Answer -Na+, Cl-, HCO3-

-Nutrients = O2, glucose, fatty acids, and AA

-Waste products for excretion (CO2)

-Membranes maintain concentration balance (Na+ on the outside, K+ on inside)



ICF - Answer -K+, Mag, Phosphate ions



Homeostasis - Answer -"Maintenance of nearly constant conditions in the internal environment"

-All organs and tissues involved

EX: kidneys maintain ion concentrations,

respiratory-- O2 and excretion of CO2

-Control systems control ICF and ECF functions

EX: regulation of O2 and CO2

, Negative Feedback - Answer promotes stability; most of the time it's a good thing. Promotes
homeostasis. End result is different than initiating stimulus

EX: hyperglycemia- pancreas will release insulin---> takes glucose back into the cells---> decreases blood
glucose level

*started with elevated BGL, ended with decrease BGL



Positive Feedback - Answer promotes change in one direction; initiating trigger is made worse.

EX: labor contractions-become closer, stronger (Exaggerated response)



Cell Membrane - Answer 1. Phospholipids

2.Cholesterol

3.Proteins

*cell membrane is the gate keeper



Proteins in Cell Membrane - Answer -provide selectivity to a membrane

-defined by mode of association with the lipid bilayer

-integral: channels, pores, carriers, enzymes, receptors, second messengers (transmembrane proteins-
extend the width of lipid bilayer)

-peripheral: enzymes, intracellular signal mediators



Cell Membrane Composition - Answer -lipid bilayer

-hydrophilic (charged) head

-hydrophobic tail (not charged)



Carbohydrates (Cell Membrane) - Answer -negative charge of carbo chains repels other negative
charges

-involved in cell-cell attachments/interactions (other cells stick to each other)

-play a role in immune reactions

-receptors for binding hormones ( like insulin)
