Pathophysiology: Biologic Basis for Disease
questions with well verified CORRECT ANSWERS
Title - answer☑️
1.What is the role of the cell membrane - <<<<CORRECT ANSWERS>>>Express self-
antigens to prevent auto-immune responses & Control the intercellular environment
2. What happens if mRNA is genetically damaged? - <<<<CORRECT
ANSWERS>>>Potential for coded protein to be damaged
3. What would happen if the Endoplasmic Reticulum was damaged? - <<<<CORRECT
ANSWERS>>>proteins could be malformed, rejected, or not sent to Golgi Apparatus,
causing multiple pathologies without the ER or genetically altered ER. The Endoplasmic
Reticulum (ER) supports homeostasis in the cell and subsequently in the body. It is the
organelle responsible for folding newly synthesized proteins before they are exported to
the Golgi Apparatus for packing and shipping. Another important function of the ER is
helping to regulate the calcium-ROS balance. Lipid biosynthesis is a third role the ER
plays in the cell.
4. What pathology would you expect if the cytoskeleton the cilia were paralyzed by
cigarette smoke? - <<<<CORRECT ANSWERS>>>Disrupt the intercellular movement
and cellular motility by their effect on microtubules and microfilaments
Mr. Turin had a severe crush injury of both lower extremities when his house collapsed
during a tornado. Among other abnormal values, Why and what are the implications for
the health care provider? - <<<<CORRECT ANSWERS>>>his laboratory tests showed
elevated potassium in his blood? Monitor his heart making sure potassium is not
elevated.
Mr. Sheehan has bilateral ankle edema from congestive heart failure. "Are my ankles
inflamed? He asks. I know inflammation causes swelling." Explain the ankle edema r/t
CHF. - <<<<CORRECT ANSWERS>>>Your ankles are swollen because of excess
fluid, not inflammation. Fluid is in your interstitial space, rather than in your blood
vessels. Congestive heart failure often results in diminished kidney function and
therefore poor elimination of fluid from the body
Miss K had an isotonic fluid imbalance. What history and lab values would support this?

Mr. Winsome has diabetic ketoacidosis. His mother wants him to rebreathe because
she is afraid he is hyperventilating and read that the solution for breathing so fast is to
rebreathe in a paper bag. What do you tell her? - <<<<CORRECT ANSWERS>>>You
would be correct if the reason your son was breathing so fast was because of anxiety or
fear but in this case his rapid breathing is because he has a condition called acidosis
meaning the blood is more acidic than usual. Carbon dioxide is the gas we breathe off
when exhale and one way the body gets rid of too much acid. So he needs to breath
fast to help get rid of the excess acid in his blood. The lungs automatically are signaled
to compensate for too much acid in the blood by increasing the breathing rate. So until
the excess acid is removed from his blood by the kidneys and lungs, this rapid breathing
rate is beneficial.
5. What IV fluid would be best for rehydrating Miss K? Would you be concerned about
any electrolytes prior to and/or after rehydrating Miss K? - <<<<CORRECT
ANSWERS>>>
If cystic fibrosis is autosomal recessive like PKU, why can't they manage it by diet? -
<<<<CORRECT ANSWERS>>>
2. What does dizygotic mean and why is this important to understand when looking at
genetic vs. epigenetic causes of a pathology? - <<<<CORRECT ANSWERS>>>
