Vet Tech Pharmacology Exam Questions
and Answers 100% Solved
acetonemia (ketosis) - ✔✔metabolic disease occurring in early lactation in
high-producing cows if the intake of carbs is not sufficient to meet the
output of blood sugar
acetylcholine - ✔✔neurotransmitter which stimulates the parasympathetic
nervous system
acidosis - ✔✔a pathologic condition resulting from an accumulation of acid
or depletion of the alkaline reserve in the blood and bpdy tissues
active transport - ✔✔movement of lipid-soluble substance from an area of
low concentration to an area of high concentration requiring the
expenditure of energy and participation of enzymes
adrenergic - ✔✔reffering to compounds whih activate the sympathetic
nervous system
adrenergic agents - ✔✔compunds which produce activities at receptors
where epinepherine or norepinephrine is the neurotransmitter
, adrenergeic blocking agents - ✔✔interrupts activity within the sympathetic
nervous system
affinity - ✔✔the special attraction of a frug molecule for a receptor
agonist - ✔✔a drug with both affinity and efficacy which will produce a drug
action when it reaches a receptor
allergen - ✔✔a substance capable of inducing an allergic response
alpha blocker - ✔✔an agent which blocks the sympathetic activity produced
at an alpha receptor
alpha receptor - ✔✔a receptor which when stimuated causes an excitatory
response (except in GI tract)
anabolic function - ✔✔the constructive phase of metabolism in which body
cells synthesize peotoplasm for growth and repair; opposite of catabolism,
which is the destructive phasein which body cells break down materials
analeptic - ✔✔a drug which acts as a restorative or causes stimulation
analgesic - ✔✔pain releiver
anaphylactic shock - ✔✔a servere alergic reaction to a foreign protein or
other substance, characterized by rapidly falling blood pressure and
difficulty breathing
