Nsg 532-Exam 3 Questions And Answers Latest
Update
Anatomy of alveoli ANS✔✔ Capillary>collagen and elastic fibers>Cellular
Part: FIBROBLASTS, PHAGOCYTES, TYPE I AND II PNEUMOCYTES
Components of blood ANS✔✔ Fluid part: plasma
Cellular part: red blood cells, white blood cells, platelets
Plasma (55% of blood) ANS✔✔ 90% water
Proteins: albumin, globulins, clotting and anti-clotting proteins, regulatory
proteins
Solutes: ions, nutrients, gases, wastes
Albumin ANS✔✔ Maintains intravascular osmotic (oncotic) pressure,
regulates fluid distribution between capillaries and tissues, and transport
protein for water-insoluble molecules
Globulin ANS✔✔ Are made by the liver. Immunoglobulin are made by
plasma cells
Physical Properties of Blood ANS✔✔ 5x denser than water
Slightly alkaline
Slightly higher than body 37C
, Solution 2024/2025
Pepper
Volume in adults: ~8% of BW
Volume in children: ~85ml/kg of BW
Plasma pH Buffering System ANS✔✔ 1. CO2 removed from tissues is
hydrated in plasma to form carbonic acid, which dissociates to form
bicarbonate ion and a hydrogen ion
2. The bicarbonate ion is transported to the lungs and is dehydrated back
into CO2 and H2O
3. Hydration and dehydration conversions of CO2 are facilitated by carbonic
a hydrate
4. Blood pH is balanced by the presence of both carbonic acid and its
conjugate alkaline, bicarbonate.
5. Bicarbonate ion serves to neutralize excess acid introduced to the blood
6. Carbonic acid serves to neutralize excess alkaline introduced to the
blood.
Blood physiology ANS✔✔ 1. Body's only fluid connective tissue
2. Body's primary transport medium
3. Transports O2/CO2 to and from tissues
4. Transports nutrients, hormones, and vital bio molecules to tissues
5. Transports immune cells and immune proteins
6. Transports waste products to the kidneys and liver for elimination and/or
recycling
RBC ANS✔✔ 1. ~99% of cellular component in the blood
2. Formed by BM-HSCs
3. Mature (circulating) RBC are a nuclear cells with no mitochondria
4. Being a nuclear would increase RBC ability to squeeze through narrow
capillaries, decreasing the risk of poor circulation and/or blood clot
5. The RBC space of mitochondria is used for holding HGB
6. They survive for ~120 days
Erythrocytogenesis ANS✔✔ Physiologic Anemia Hypoxia can cause the liver
to make erythropoietin by
HGB synthesis
1. Erythropoietin Stem cells
2. Phase 1 Early Erythroblast
3. Phase 2 Late erythroblast
HGB accumulation
4. Phase 3 degradation of the nucleus, ribosome, and mitochondria
5. Mature RBC
