The preceptor is teaching the nursing student about fluid and electrolyte balance. Which
statement made by the student indicates that the nursing student understood the information
discussed?
A. "Magnesium decreases when potassium increases
B. "Sodium decreases when potassium decreases"
C. "phosphate increases when calcium increases"
D. "Magnesium increases when potassium increases" - ANSWER-D. "Magnesium increases with
potassium increases"
Magnesium and potassium moves in the same direction. Phosphorus and calcium have an
inverse relationship
sodium and potassium have an inverse relationship
When the osmotic pressure of the blood is elevated above normal, water would shift
A. Interstitial compartment into the cells
B. Blood in the cells
C. Interstitial compartment into the blood
D. Cells into the interstitial compartment - ANSWER-interstitial compartment into the blood
Osmotic pressure happens when two solutions with different concentrations are separated by a
membrane Osmotic pressure causes water to move into the solution with the highest
concentration. The higher concentration here is the blood and the compartment closer to the
blood will be the interstitium so fluid will move "to" blood

The nurse requests that the nursing student who worked with her that day on the oncology
discuss changes that may occur in cells. Which statement by the nursing student requires
further teaching
A. " Hypertrophy can be seen it patients with congestive heart failure due to the excess work by
the heart"
B. "Atrophy is when cells become healthy and grow larger"
C. "Dysplasia is precancerous changes that is manifested when mitosis is increases" - ANSWER-
B. "Atrophy is when cells become healthy and grow larger"
When a group of cells in the body dies, what is the change called
A. Hypoxia
B. Ischemia
C. Gangrene
D. Necrosis - ANSWER-D. Necrosis
Necrosis is when a group of cells die. This is separate from apoptosis. Apoptosis is when the
cycle has reached the end of its cycle. Necrosis most likely occurs when there is damage to an
area or organ
To which of the following does the term Apoptosis refer
A. Liquefaction of necrotic tissue
B. Programmed cell self-destruction
C. Increased rate of mitosis by certain cells
D. Ischemic damage to cells - ANSWER-B. Programmed cell self-destruction

A nursing student is preparing for a pediatric clinical day on a unit where the clients are
diagnosed with genetic disorders. Which statements by the nursing student are correct? Select
all that apply
A. X-linked recessive disorders are manifested in males who lack the matching gene
B. Down syndrome belongs to a group of single-gene disorders
C.Skipped generations can occur because of female carriers
D. Down syndrome, Turner syndrome, and Edwards syndrome all are chromosomal disorders.
E. Cystic fibrosis, sickle cell anemia, and Tay-sachs disease are chromosomal disorders like Down
syndrome - ANSWER-A. X-linked recessive disorders are manifested in males who lack the
matching gene
C.Skipped generations can occur because of female carriers
D. Down syndrome, Turner syndrome, and Edwards syndrome all are chromosomal disorders.
X-linked recessive disorders are manifested in heterozygous males who lack matching normal
gene the Y chromosome
Skipped generations usually occur when the female is the recessive carrier and the dads trait
was more dominant
Which "buddy" electrolyte works with potassium to ensure the electrical impulses in the heart
is functioning adequately to maintain homeostasis - ANSWER-calcium
Potassium and calcium both have cardiac effects and work together during potential to maintain
normal functioning of the heart
Which of the following would be considered normal serum pH
A. 7.4
B. 8
C. 4.5 to 8
C. 7.0 - ANSWER-A. 7.4

The normal serum pH range is 7.35 to 7.45.
When may excess hydrogen ions accumulate in the blood, what happens to serum pH?
A. increases
B. Reamins constant
C. varies based on metabolism
D. Decreases - ANSWER-D. Decreases
What is the slowest but most effective control for acid-base balance?
A. Respiratory system
B. Buffer system in the blood
C. Brain
D. Kidneys - ANSWER-D. kidneys
What is the correct effect on the body of abnormally slow respirations?
A. Decreased bicarbonate ion
B. Increased carbonic acid
C. Decreased carbonic acid
Increase bicarbonate ion - ANSWER-B. Increased carbonic acid
When respirations slow, the body is not able to exhale the acid in gases, carbonic acid will
increase
A client receiving an influenza vaccine (flu shot) asks when the immunization will be effective.
The nurse response based on the knowledge that after receiving the vaccine, the levels of
immunoglobulin M (IgM) are high enough to provide immunization (select all that apply)
