UTA 2458 Aranda Exam 1 Questions With Complete
Solutions
ABO blood types Correct Answers A, B, AB, O
Acid-based hormones Correct Answers such as epinephrine ;
water soluble molecules derived from amino acids ; binds to
protein receptors outside of cell ; second messengers inside cell
activates enzymes to influence gene expression
age related effects of the heart Correct Answers -Sclerosis and
thickening of valve flaps: lead to
heart murmurs
-Decline in cardiac reserve: heart becomes less
efficient
-Fibrosis of cardiac muscle: leads to stiffened
heart, arrhythmias caused by conduction system
problems
-Atherosclerosis: may be averted by good diet
aldosterone Correct Answers sodium retention and water
follows, made by adrenal gland (cortex), ^ BP
Anemia (name the types) Correct Answers aplastic: body
doesn't produce enough RBC's
hemolytic: RBC's are destroyed faster than bone marrow can
replace them
, sickle cell: RBC assume sickle cell shape and die prematurely
resulting in RBC shortage
antidiuretic hormone Correct Answers made by hypothalamus
and stored in posterior pituitary, regulates and balances amount
of water in blood
Atrial natriuretic peptide (ANP) Correct Answers -reduce
plasma volume: ^ renal excretion of salt and water, vasodilation,
and ^ vascular permeability
-lowers BP and control electrolyte homeostasis
-target organ: adrenal gland
AV valves of the heart Correct Answers the mitral valve
(bicuspid valve), and the tricuspid valve, which are between the
upper chambers (atria) and the lower chambers (ventricles
baroreceptors Correct Answers Cells that are sensitive to blood
pressure changes.
Bisphenol-A or hormone disruptors Correct Answers BPA:
interfere with production, secretion, transport, action, function,
elimination, acts as estrogen, androgens, TH
HD: mimic natural hormones potentially producing
overstimulation. bind do a receptor in cell and block the
endogenous hormone from bonding
blood albumin levels/solutes Correct Answers
