QuestionAnswer
A patient consumes excess calories over time. Which outcome best reflects positive energy balance? Weight gain due to storage of excess nutrients
Nasal conchae are also known as what? Turbinates (also called turbinate bones)
Oxygen bound to hemoglobin forms Oxyhemoglobin
A patient has impaired mucociliary clearance due to cilia paralysis. This would most directly increase the risk of Respiratory infections
Normal resting expiration is primarily Passive due to elastic recoil and surface tension
Accessory digestive organs are defined as organs that Empty secretions into the alimentary canal
A key structural feature of saturated fatty acids is that they have No double bonds between carbon atoms
A lacteal in the villus is a Lymphatic capillary that absorbs large fats
A patient with chronic liver inflammation caused by a virus has Hepatitis
Most oxygen (about 98–99%) is transported in the blood by Binding to hemoglobin in red blood cells
A bomb calorimeter measures The caloric content (potential energy) of foods
A person has a tidal volume of 450 mL, physiologic dead space of 150 mL, and a respiratory rate of 16/min. What is the alveolar ventilation rate (AVR)? 4,800 mL per minute
A patient’s arterial PCO₂ rises. The expected ventilatory response is Increased ventilation to lower PCO₂
A nutrient deficiency severe enough to cause the body to consume structural molecules such as muscle proteins can ultimately lead to Death
A patient on a very low carbohydrate diet must still supply glucose for glucose-dependent cells. Which pathway makes glucose from amino acids and glycerol? Gluconeogenesis
Air movements other than breathing, such as cough and sneezing, are called Non-respiratory movements
Peripheral chemoreceptors typically produce a major response when blood O₂ decreases to about 50% of normal
A fecal occult blood test is primarily used in screening for Colorectal cancer
Amino acids are absorbed into blood vessels of villi by Blood vessels of villi by active transport
Organs of the upper respiratory tract include all of the following except Trachea
Pneumonia impairs gas exchange mainly because Alveoli swell and fill with fluid and white blood cells, decreasing surface area
A factor that influences BMR includes Thyroid hormone activity
A patient with vitamin B12 malabsorption due to lack of intrinsic factor likely has impaired function of which stomach cell? Parietal cell
A typical lifespan change in the digestive system is that Thins and teeth may become sensitive
Normal resting inspiration uses primarily The diaphragm and external intercostal muscles
Age-related changes can decrease gas exchange area because Aviola walls thin and aviola merge
A diet provides adequate calories, but a bile salt deficiency causes fat-soluble vitamin deficiency. This is best classified as Secondary malnutrition
A clinician describes BMR. Which condition best matches basal conditions? Awake and resting after an overnight fast in a comfortable environment
A patient taking large doses of vitamins develops toxicity. Which vitamin class is most associated with overdose risk due to storage? Fat-soluble vitamins
A patient complains of frequent constipation. Which large intestine role is most relevant? Water absorption and feces formation/storage
As chyme enters the duodenum, the enterogastric reflex Slows stomach emptying
Aging may increase susceptibility to respiratory infections partly because Macrophages lose efficiency and mucus thickens
A healthy human can survive without food approximately 50 to 70 days
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 person has a tidal volume of 450 mL and a respiratory rate of 16/min. What is the minute ventilation (MV)? 7,200 mL per minute
Parietal pleura are The outer layer lining the thoracic cavity
A person has a tidal volume of 500 mL and a respiratory rate of 12/min. What is the minute ventilation (MV)? 6,000 mL per minute
Age-related changes may reduce bronchial dilation because Connective tissue replaces muscle in bronchioles
The major function of the respiratory system is regulation of Blood pH
A function of the paranasal sinuses is to Resonate the voice
Partial pressure is best defined as The pressure each gas contributes to the total pressure in a mixture
A respiratory cycle consists of One inspiration followed by one expiration
LDL is high in Cholesterol
Vitamins destroyed by cooking are Water-soluble vitamins
Decreased surfactant causes ncreased surface tension leading to alveolar collapse
Olfactory receptors are located in Upper portion of the nasal cavity
Peristaltic rush causing diarrhea occurs in Small intestine
Asthma wheezing occurs due to Bronchoconstriction in smaller airways
Excess glucose is stored as Glycogen
Bile flows into Common hepatic duct
HDL is high in Protein
Alveolar dead space refers to Air that reaches alveoli that are not well perfused with blood
A small fraction of oxygen is transported as Dissolved in plasma
Recommended fat intake is about 30% of total daily calories
Paranasal sinuses are located in Maxillary, frontal, ethmoid, and sphenoid bones
Lipids provide energy of About 9.5 Calories per gram
The lower respiratory tract includes The bronchial tree
A person with TV 500 mL, dead space 150 mL, RR 12/min has AVR of 4,200 mL per minute
A patient with Edema related to low plasma oncoyic pressure from inadequate protein intake. This conditions is best explained by: High bile salt production
A major function of the large intestine is to Absorb water and electrolytes and form feces
The alveolar wall consists mainly of Type I alveolar cells (simple squamous epithelium)
Pontine respiratory centers function to Limit the duration of inspiration
Breakdown of glycogen to glucose is Glycogenolysis
Secretin primarily functions to Neutralize acidic chyme in the small intestine
Bicarbonate in saliva helps to Maintain oral pH and protect against acids
Physiologic dead space is The sum of anatomic and alveolar dead space
Calcium and phosphorus together make up About 75% of mineral content in the body
Venous blood hemoglobin saturation is about 75%
Minute ventilation is calculated as Tidal volume multiplied by respiratory rate
Peripheral chemoreceptors are located in Carotid and aortic bodies
Pale feces, dark urine, and jaundice indicate a problem with The liver or bile system
A person with TV 600 mL, dead space 150 mL, RR 10/min has AVR of 4,500 mL per minute
Bicarbonate in pancreatic juice functions to Neutralize acidic chyme entering the duodenum
One hemoglobin molecule binds Four oxygen molecules
Bile salts function to Emulsify fats to aid digestion
Increased arterial PCO₂ causes Increased ventilation to remove excess CO₂
The hormone that increases hunger is Ghrelin
Right upper quadrant pain radiating to the shoulder suggests Gallbladder disease such as gallstones
A person with TV 600 mL and RR 10/min has MV of 6,000 mL per minute
