unit 17-19 practice quiz

| A patient has elevated LDL levels. In this context LDL is described as being high in: | cholesterol |
| A clinician explains that lipids have more energy per gram than carbohydrates. Which value supports this? | 9.5 calories/gram for lipids |
| Organs of the upper respiratory tract include all of the following EXCEPT the: | trachea |
| A patient with chronic liver inflammation caused by a virus has: | hepatitis |
| Minute ventilation (MV) is calculated as: | tv x respiratory rate (rr) |
| A small fraction of oxygen (about 1-2%) is transported: | dissolved in plasma |
| A typical life-span change in the digestive system is that tooth enamel: | thins and teeth may become sensitive |
| A patient with vitamin B12 malabsorption due to lack of intrinsic factor likely has impaired function of which stomach cell? | parietal cell |
| A major function of the respiratory system is regulation of: | blood ph |
| A clinician explains that Ca and P are major contributors to body mineral content. Together they account for nearly: | 75% of mineral elements by weight |
| A patient has pale feces, dark urine, and jaundice. Which organ is most directly involved? | liver/bile system |
| Normal resting inspiration uses primarily the: | internal intercoastals and abdominals |
| A diet provides adequate calories but a bile salt deficiency causes fat-soluble vitamin deficiency. This is best classified as: | secondary malnutrition |
| Olfactory receptors are located primarily in the: | upper portion of the nasal cavity |
| Amino acids are absorbed into: | blood vessel of villi by active transport |
| A patient complains of frequent constipation. Which large intestine role is most relevant? | water absorption and feces formation/storage |
| Pontine respiratory groups help control breathing primarily by: | limiting the duration of inspiration |
| A healthy human can survive without food for approximately: | 50 to 70 days |
| Pneumonia impairs gas exchange mainly because: | alveoli swell and fill with fluid and WBC's decreasing surface area |

| A patient is advised that cooking can reduce intake of certain vitamins. Which vitamins are most likely to be destroyed by cooking/processing? | water-soluble vitamins |
| A patient consumes excess calories over time. Which outcome best reflects positive energy balance? | weight gain due to storage of excess nutrients |
| A patient has decreased surfactant production. What is the most likely immediate consequence? | increased surface tension leading to alveolar collapse (artectasis) |
| A patient presents with edema related to low plasma oncotic pressure from inadequate protein intake. This condition is best explained by: | decreased plasma proteins from protein deficiency |
| A bomb calorimeter measures: | the caloric content ( potential energy) of foods |
| A function of the paranasal sinuses is to: | resonate the voice |
| A major function of the large intestine is to: | absorb water and electrolytes and form feces |
