, Chapter 1: Introduction to Pathophysiology
1. What is pathophysiology?
A. Study of normal anatomy only
B. Study of how diseases alter normal body functions
C. Study of medications
D. Study of diagnostic tests only
Correct Answer: B
Rationale:
Pathophysiology is the study of functional changes in the body caused by disease or injury, linking
basic science to clinical care.
2. What is the difference between etiology and pathogenesis?
A. Etiology = cause; Pathogenesis = development of disease
B. Etiology = symptom; Pathogenesis = treatment
C. Etiology = treatment; Pathogenesis = prevention
D. They are the same
Correct Answer: A
Rationale:
Etiology identifies the cause of disease, while pathogenesis describes how the disease develops
over time.
3. Which factor is considered an intrinsic risk factor for disease?
A. Genetics
B. Smoking
C. Occupational exposure
D. Diet
Correct Answer: A
Rationale:
Intrinsic factors are internal characteristics such as genetic predisposition, age, or sex.
4. What is the difference between signs and symptoms?
, A. Signs = objective; Symptoms = subjective
B. Signs = subjective; Symptoms = objective
C. Both are subjective
D. Both are objective
Correct Answer: A
Rationale:
Signs can be observed or measured (e.g., rash, fever), whereas symptoms are reported by the
patient (e.g., pain, fatigue).
5. What is an acute disease?
A. Develops slowly and lasts long
B. Develops quickly and resolves in a short time
C. Always fatal
D. Cannot be treated
Correct Answer: B
Rationale:
Acute diseases have a rapid onset and short duration, e.g., acute infections or injuries.
6. What defines a chronic disease?
A. Rapid onset, short duration
B. Long duration, often slow progression
C. Caused only by bacteria
D. Self-limiting
Correct Answer: B
Rationale:
Chronic diseases persist for months or years, often with slow progression, e.g., diabetes,
hypertension.
7. What is a complication of a disease?
A. Primary cause of the disease
B. New problems arising as a consequence of disease
C. Only genetic disorders
D. Preventable always
Correct Answer: B
Rationale:
Complications are secondary problems that occur due to disease or its treatment.
