What is Klinefelter syndrome? - Answer An extra X chromosome for males so example XXY causing female-like qualities What is Turner Syndrome? - Answer females. missing or deformed x chromosome. right hemisphere dysfunction, hearing loss, ear infection, language and articulation disorders, visual spatial and attentional problems What is beta thalassemia? - Answer a condition in which the synthesis of the betaglobin chains is decreased or absent. Causes low hemoglobin. Which medication is con...

1. What is Starling's Law of Capillary forces? How does this explain why a nutritionally deficient child would have edema? Starling’s Law describes how fluids move across the capillary membrane. There are two major opposing forces that act to balance each other, hydrostatic pressure (pushing water out of the capillaries) and osmotic pressure (including oncontic pressure, which pushes fluid into the capillaries). Both electrolytes and proteins (oncontic pressure) in the blood affect osmot...

pediatric heart and circulatory systems CORRECT ANS HR is higher (due to heart and ventricles being smaller, heart has to beat faster to pump blood to the rest of the body, increased metablic rate) chest wall thin myocardial muscle less efficient right and left ventricles are the same size at birth dependent on Ca2+, glucose, and volume *BP is not a reliable indicator of clinical decompensation; it is a late indicator* cardiac issues risk factors CORRECT ANS majority = congenital - 3-8 ...

WGU patho D236 EXAM 1. Turner syndrome: A chromosomal disorder in females in which either an *X chromosome* is missing, making the person XO instead of XX, or part of one X chromosome is deleted. 2. Tay-Sachs Disease: A human genetic disease caused by a recessive allele for a dysfunctional enzyme leads to the accumulation of certain lipids in the brain. Seizures, blindness, and degeneration of motor and mental performance usually become manifest a few months after birth, followed by de...
