Dehydration
Give this one a go later!
Reduction in bodily fluids
Symptoms- headache, thirst, fatigue, dry mucous membranes,
lightheadedness
Elderly and infants more susceptible to low total body water
What type of immunity prevents a neonate from developing an infection because he has
maternal antibodies that he received in breast milk?
Give this one a go later!
, Passive
Lymphocyte
Give this one a go later!
Create antibodies to fight against bacteria or virus
Cystic fibrosis
Give this one a go later!
Single gene disorder (CFTR gene mutation)
Autosomal recessive
Most common in white children
Defective transport of chloride ions cause salt imbalance- thickened
secretions, digestive issues, malnutrition. Males and females
Must inherit two copies of gene (1 from each parent)
Tetrapoloidy
Give this one a go later!
euploid has 92 chromosomes and fetus usually does not survive
, IgE
Give this one a go later!
Active against parasites
Important mediators of allergic response
CO Poisoning
Give this one a go later!
CO has easier time binding to Hgb thus decreasing O2 binding causing
sleepiness, headache, nausea, vomiting, weakness
Why are geriatric patients susceptible to dehydration?
Give this one a go later!
Lower total body muscle and fat mass
Natural killer cells
