Quiz :A 32-year-old man is complaining of burning, itching, photophobia, and
severe pain in his right eye after swimming in the ocean. To determine that the
eye condition is corneal rather than a conjunctival disease, which of the following
would be the distinguishing symptom?
A.) Burning
B.) Itching
c.) photophobia
D.) Severe pain - Answer :Severe pain
Quiz :A woman with a diagnosis of type 2 diabetes has been ordered by her
primary care provider to have a hemoglobin A1C test for the first time. The
woman states, "I don't see why you want to test my blood cells when it's sugar
that's the problem." What aspect of physiology will underlie the care provider's
response to the patient?
A.)The amount of glucose attached to A1C cells reflects the average blood glucose
levels over the life of the cell.
B)Hemoglobin synthesis by the bone marrow is inversely proportionate to blood
glucose levels, with low A1C indicating hyperglycemia.
C)The high metabolic needs of red cells and their affinity for free glucose indicate
the amount of glucose that has been available over 6 to 12 weeks.
D)Insulin is a glucose receptor agonist on the hemoglobin molecule, and high
glucose suggests low insulin levels. - Answer :The amount of glucose attached to
A1C cells reflects the average blood glucose levels over the life of the cell.
, Quiz :A 30 year old man with a diagnosis of type 1 diabetes is aware of the
multiple effects that insulin has on his metabolism. Which of the following
physiological processes are actions of insulin? - Answer :Facilitating triglycerides
from glucose in fat cells
Quiz :A three-year-old girl has just been diagnosed with type 1A diabetes and her
parents are currently receiving education from the diabetes education nurse at
the hospital where their daughter is receiving treatment. How can the nurse best
explain the etiology of their daughter's health problem to her parents?
A.) Environmental and lifestyle factors are known to play a part in the fact that
her pancreas secretes and withholds insulin at the wrong times."
B.) "This tendency to produce insufficient amounts of insulin is likely something
that she inherited."
C.) "It's not known exactly why your daughter has completely stopped making
insulin, and treatment will consist of your rigidly controlling her diet."
D.) "The problem that underlies her diabetes is that her own body has destroyed
the cells in herpancreas that produce insulin - Answer :"The problem that
underlies her diabetes is that her own body has destroyed the cells in her
pancreas that produce insulin."
Quiz :Which of the following statements best captures an aspect of the role of
hormones in the body?
A.) Some chemical substances can function as hormones or be integrated with the
central and peripheral nervous systems.
B)Hormones directly initiate many of the processes that contribute to
homeostasis.
C)Control of body processes is ensured by the fact that a single hormone can only
exert one effect on one specific system or tissue.
,D)Each hormone that exists in the body is produced by only one specific
endocrine gland. - Answer :Some chemical substances can function as either
hormones or neurotransmitters.
Quiz :What does a high level of thyroid-stimulating hormone indicate?
A.) Thyroid nodule
B.) Hyperthyroidism
C.) Myxedema
D.) Hypothyroidism - Answer :Hypothyroidism
Quiz :Which of the following statements best captures the role of the adrenal
cortex in maintaining homeostasis?
Question 1 options:
A. Normal sexual function is dependent on adequate adrenal cortical function.
B. Redundant, secondary production of adrenal cortical hormones can
compensate for the loss of the adrenal glands.
C. The adrenal cortical hormones are primarily steroids and sex hormones.
D. The adrenal cortex is responsible for the production of epinephrine and
norepinephrine, which are part of the sympathetic nervous system. - Answer
:The adrenal cortical hormones are primarily steroids and sex hormones.
Quiz :A three-year-old girl has been diagnosed with amblyopia. Which of the
following pathophysiologic processes is most likely to underlie her health
problem?
Question 2 options:
a. The child may have a neural pathway disorder
b. She may have been born with infantile cataracts
, c. The girl may have chronic bacterial conjunctivitis
d. The child may have a congenital deficit of rods and/or cones - Answer :She may
have been born with infantile cataracts
Quiz :Which of the following statements best describes an aspect of the normal
process of glucose metabolism?
Question 3 options:
a. Glucose that exceeds metabolic needs is converted and stored by the liver.
b. Blood glucose levels are kept in a steady state by selective excretion and
reuptake by the kidneys.
c. Ingested glucose that is not needed for cellular metabolism circulates in the
blood until it is taken up to meet cellular needs.
d. Blood glucose levels are primarily a result of the timing, quantity, and character
of food intake. - Answer :Glucose that exceeds metabolic needs is converted and
stored by the liver.
Quiz :A 60-year-old man has presented to his nurse practitioner because of an
earache that has become progressively more painful in recent days. After giving
his history and having an examination with an otoscope, the man has been
diagnosed with otitis externa. Which of the nurse practitioner's following
statements to the man is most accurate?
Question 4 options:
a. "This likely happened because your ears aren't draining like they should, but
antibiotics that you'll put in your ears will resolve this."
b. "I'll prescribe some ear drops for you, and in the meantime it's important not to
use ear swabs."
c. "I'm going to instill some warm water into your ear to flush out debris and
bacteria."
