What physiologic change occurs during heat exhaustion?
a. Hemoconcentration occurs because of the loss of salt and
water.
b. Cramping of voluntary muscles occurs as a result of salt loss.
c. Thermoregulation fails because of high core temperatures.
d. Subcutaneous layers are damaged because of high core
temperatures. - ANSWER-A. Hemoconcentration occurs because
of the loss of salt and water.
In hypoxic injury, sodium enters the cell and causes swelling
because:
a. The cell membrane permeability increases for sodium during
periods of hypoxia.
b. ATP is insufficient to maintain the pump that keeps sodium out
of the cell.
c. The lactic acid produced by the hypoxia binds with sodium in
the cell.

What is the cause of free calcium in the cytosol that damages cell
membranes by uncontrolled enzyme activation?
a. Activation of endonuclease interferes with the binding of
calcium to protein.
b. Activation of phospholipases, to which calcium normally binds,
degrades the proteins.
c. An influx of phosphate ions competes with calcium for binding
to proteins.
d. Depletion of ATP normally pumps calcium from the cell. -
ANSWER-D. Depletion of ATP normally pumps calcium from the
cell.
