APR 3466 WEEK 4 ASSESSMENT PRACTICE
EXAMINATION 2026 QUESTIONS WITH
ANSWERS GRADED A+
◍ Which structure prevents the eversion of mitral and tricuspid valves during
ventricular contraction?Chordae tendineaeEpicardiumInterventricular
septumInferior vena cava.
Answer: Chordae tendineae
◍ What is visual processing? (Gv).
Answer: ability to perceive, interpret, and manipulate visual stimuli,
including patterns and spatial relationships
◍ Which laboratory value would be elevated if a COPD and heart failure
patient with dyspnea had cardiac complications?Serum potassiumSerum
homocysteineHigh-density lipoproteinb-Type natriuretic peptide (BNP).
Answer: b-Type natriuretic peptide (BNP)
◍ Which step of pulmonary artery (PA) catheter insertion poses the greatest
risk for dysrhythmia?When inserted into the radial arteryWhen inserted into
the left atriumWhen inserted into the right ventricleWhen inserted into the
pulmonary artery.
Answer: When inserted into the right ventricle
◍ What is Gv?.
Answer: Broad Visual and Perception
◍ Which statement describes the relationship between lipids and
cardiovascular disease?An increased high-density lipoprotein (HDL) level is
associated with an increased risk of coronary artery disease (CAD).Risk for
CAD is assessed by measuring total cholesterol.Lipoprotein levels are an
indicator of atherosclerosis.Triglycerides move cholesterol from the tissues,
, decreasing risk of CA
D. .
Answer: Lipoprotein levels are an indicator of atherosclerosis.
◍ What is Long Term Retrieval? (Glr) What does it reflect?.
Answer: housing info in 'long-term' storage reflects the ability to access the
info fluidly and without effort when needed
◍ What are African American students more likely to do? What are they less
likely to do?.
Answer: more likely to receive disciplinary referrals less likely to spend
time in gen ed settings, once identified (more restrictive placements)
◍ What should we report when assessing ELL students? What should we
explicitly state about verbal scores?.
Answer: report a statement about English proficiency and the degree to
which results may underestimate ability explicitly state that verbal scores
may reflect language exposure, not verbal reasoning
◍ Place the structures of the heart in order of blood flow starting after the
superior and inferior vena cava..
Answer: Right atriumRight ventricleLungsLeft atriumMitral valveLeft
ventricle
◍ What are 3 ways we can support African American students?.
Answer: 1. examine possible non-cognitive sources of academic difficulty 2.
examine referral practices by staff3. use multiple data sources (cog tests are
only 1 data point)
◍ What should we integrate when evaluating ELL students? What should we
consider?.
Answer: integrate dynamic and ecological information (RTI, observations,
progress, teacher input)consider nonverbal or reduced-language assessments
(but these do not reduce cultural influence)
◍ What are 5 examples of possible non-cognitive sources of academic
difficulty for African American (or any diverse population) students?.
