Cellular deathStage 1:Stage 2: Necrosis:
Correct Answer
- loss of function - swells, ruptures, and dies, release of lysosomal enzymes - large number of cells die and liquefy due to enzymesExplanation
In cellular death, there are two stages mentioned. In stage 1, one of the characteristics is the loss of function in the cells. In stage 2, known as necrosis, the cells undergo swelling, rupture, and ultimately die. As a result of this process, lysosomal enzymes are released. Additionally, a large number of cells die and liquefy due to the action of these enzymes.Rate this question:

- E.
Convalescence, incubation, acute, chronic, prodromal, gain entry
Correct Answer
A. Gain entry, incubation, prodromal, acute, convalescence or chronicExplanation
The correct order for the development of an infection is as follows: gain entry, incubation, prodromal, acute, convalescence or chronic. Gain entry refers to the initial entry of the pathogen into the body. Incubation is the period during which the pathogen begins to multiply but does not cause symptoms. Prodromal is the early stage of the infection where mild symptoms may start to appear. Acute is the phase where the infection is at its peak and symptoms are most severe. Convalescence is the period of recovery, and chronic refers to a long-lasting or recurring infection.Rate this question:

What is the difference between septicemia and bactermia
- A.
Nothing, they are the same thing.
- B.
Speticmia is with viruses and bactermia is with bacteria
- C.
Septicmia is a systemic infection and bactermia is an ifection in the resident flora
- D.
Septicmia is a systemic infection and bactermia is bacteria in the blood
Correct Answer
D. Septicmia is a systemic infection and bactermia is bacteria in the bloodExplanation
The correct answer is septicemia is a systemic infection and bacteremia is bacteria in the blood. Septicemia refers to a severe infection that has spread throughout the bloodstream, causing systemic symptoms. Bacteremia specifically refers to the presence of bacteria in the blood, which may or may not cause symptoms. Therefore, the two terms are not interchangeable, as septicemia is a type of infection that can result from bacteremia, but bacteremia does not always lead to septicemia.Rate this question:

Which is not a diagnostic test for infection?
- A.
Blood pressure
- B.
Swabs/cultures
- C.
Sputum sample
- D.
Blood test (ESR)
- E.
Fever - therometer
Correct Answer
A. Blood pressureExplanation
Blood pressure is not a diagnostic test for infection because it measures the force of blood against the walls of the arteries and is used to assess cardiovascular health, not to detect or diagnose infections. Infections are typically diagnosed through tests such as swabs/cultures, sputum samples, and blood tests (ESR) which can detect the presence of pathogens or abnormal immune responses. Fever, measured with a thermometer, can also be an indicator of infection but is not a specific diagnostic test.Rate this question:
-
- 11.
Treatment for infection
Correct Answer
antibiotics
antifungals
antiviralExplanation
The correct answer includes antibiotics, antifungals, and antiviral medications. These are all types of treatments that can be used to combat infections. Antibiotics are used to treat bacterial infections, antifungals are used to treat fungal infections, and antiviral medications are used to treat viral infections. Depending on the type of infection, the appropriate treatment option can be determined.Rate this question:

- D.
Can only be immediate, never delayed or prolonged
- E.
Systemic effects are: erythema, edema, pain, and diminished function
Correct Answer
C. Is intended to localize and remove injurous agentExplanation
Inflammation is a natural response of the body to injury or infection. It is intended to localize and remove injurious agents, such as bacteria or damaged cells, from the affected area. This process involves the recruitment of immune cells, release of chemical mediators, and increased blood flow to the site of injury. Inflammation is not always bad; it is a crucial part of the body's defense mechanism.Rate this question:
-
- 13.
Chronic inflamation
- A.
Is a disease
- B.
Less swelling but more macrophages, lymphocytes and fibroblasts
- C.
More scare tissue
- D.
Granuloma formation
- E.
All of the above
Correct Answer
E. All of the aboveExplanation
The correct answer is "all of the above" because chronic inflammation is a disease characterized by less swelling but more macrophages, lymphocytes, and fibroblasts. It also leads to the formation of more scar tissue and granulomas. Therefore, all the options mentioned in the question are true and contribute to chronic inflammation.Rate this question:

1. Humoral immunity is with (B or T cells)2. Cell mediated Immunity is with (B or T cells)
Correct Answer
1. B 2. T
B,TExplanation
Humoral immunity is primarily mediated by B cells, which produce antibodies that can neutralize pathogens or mark them for destruction by other immune cells. On the other hand, cell-mediated immunity is mainly carried out by T cells, which directly attack infected cells or coordinate immune responses. Therefore, the correct answer is 1. B for humoral immunity and 2. T for cell-mediated immunity. However, it is worth noting that both B and T cells play a role in both types of immunity, but their contributions are more prominent in the respective types mentioned.Rate this question:

_____________________ puts cacium into the bones (Vitamine D or Calcitonin)
Correct Answer
CalcitoninExplanation
Calcitonin is a hormone that helps regulate calcium levels in the body. It works by inhibiting the activity of osteoclasts, which are cells responsible for breaking down bone tissue and releasing calcium into the bloodstream. By inhibiting osteoclast activity, calcitonin promotes the deposition of calcium into the bones, ultimately strengthening them. Therefore, calcitonin is the correct answer as it is the hormone that puts calcium into the bones.Rate this question:

- D.
Denial, angery, depresion, acceptance
- E.
None of the above
Correct Answer
A. Alarm stage, resistance stage, exhaustionExplanation
The correct answer is alarm stage, resistance stage, exhaustion. These three stages represent the general pattern of response to stress. The alarm stage is the initial reaction to a stressor, where the body prepares for fight or flight. The resistance stage is the body's attempt to adapt and cope with the ongoing stressor. Finally, the exhaustion stage occurs when the body's resources are depleted, leading to physical and emotional exhaustion.Rate this question:

True or false: The pericardium is the inner layer conected to heart and diaphram and thoratic cavity
- A.
True
- B.
False
Correct Answer
B. FalseExplanation
The pericardium is not the inner layer connected to the heart, diaphragm, and thoracic cavity. The pericardium is actually the outermost layer of the heart, consisting of a tough, fibrous sac that surrounds and protects the heart. The inner layer connected to the heart is called the epicardium.Rate this question:

True of False: Myocardium is the muscular layer of the heart, thicker on the left side
- A.
True
- B.
False
Correct Answer
A. TrueExplanation
The myocardium is indeed the muscular layer of the heart. It is responsible for the contraction and pumping action of the heart, allowing it to circulate blood throughout the body. The myocardium is thicker on the left side of the heart because the left ventricle, which is responsible for pumping oxygenated blood to the rest of the body, requires more forceful contractions. Therefore, the statement "Myocardium is the muscular layer of the heart, thicker on the left side" is true.Rate this question:
-
- 35.
True or False: Endocardium is the inner layer of the heart and has the septum and all the valves.
- A.
True
- B.
False
Correct Answer
A. TrueExplanation
The endocardium is indeed the inner layer of the heart. It lines the chambers of the heart and covers the valves. It is composed of a thin layer of endothelial cells and connective tissue. The septum, which separates the right and left sides of the heart, is also part of the endocardium. Therefore, the statement that the endocardium is the inner layer of the heart and contains the septum and valves is true.Rate this question:

What is preload and what is after load?
- A.
After load is the reistance the heart has to overcome on the left side
- B.
Preload is the venous return
- C.
Preload is the blood tha comes into the IVC and SVC
- D.
A and B
- E.
A and B and C
Correct Answer
E. A and B and CExplanation
The correct answer is A and B and C. Preload refers to the volume of blood that enters the heart's ventricles during diastole, which includes the blood that comes into the inferior vena cava (IVC) and superior vena cava (SVC). Afterload, on the other hand, is the resistance that the heart needs to overcome in order to pump blood out of the left side. Therefore, both A and B and C are correct explanations for preload and afterload.Rate this question:
