      WCU PHYS 261 FINAL EXAM 2023-2024 ACTUAL EXAM 2
      LATEST VERSIONS A AND B EACH VERSION CONTAINS 100
      QUESTIONS AND CORRECT DETAILED ANSWERS WITH
      RATIONALES|AGRADE
      VERSION A
      What is acidosis, the 2 types of acid-base disturbances, and their
      meanings? - ANSWER- -pH is acidic
      -metabolic: imbalance between acid and base due to excess acid in the
      body or not enough base in the body
      -respiratory: imbalance between acid and base due to excess CO2 in the
      body
      What is alkalosis, the 2 types of acid-base disturbances, and their
      meanings? - ANSWER- -pH is alkaline(basic)
      -metabolic: imbalance between acid and base due to excess base in body
      or not enough acid in body
      respiratory: imbalance between acid and base due to not enough CO2 in
      body
      What are the 2 compensations for the 2 types of acidosis? - ANSWERmetabolic(compensation done by the respiratory system):
      hyperventilation- releasing CO2 because CO2 is an acid, and releasing it
      will increase the pH
      respiratory(compensation done by the metabolic system): kidney will
      increase reabsorption of HCO3-, and because HCO3- is basic, it
      increases the pH

      What are the 2 compensations for the 2 types of alkalosis? - ANSWERmetabolic(compensation done by the respiratory system):
      hypoventilation- retaining CO2 because CO2 is an acid, and retaining it
      will decrease the pH
      respiratory(compensation done by the metabolic system): kidneys will
      increase secretion of HCO3-, and because HCO3- is basic, it decreases
      the pH
      What are the functions of blood? - ANSWER- -transportation of
      nutrients and hormones
      -regulation of water and pH
      -defense against infections and blood loss
      What is blood composed of? - ANSWER- fluid plasma and blood
      cells(RBCs, WBCs, and platelets)
      What is plasma composed of? - ANSWER- Water, hormones, ions,
      molecules, and proteins
      What are the plasma proteins and their functions/characteristics? -
      ANSWER- albumin: 2/3 of the plasma proteins, produced by liver,
      creates and maintains oncotic pressure
      globulins: 3 types- alpha, beta, and gamma, make up immunoglobulins
      clotting proteins: 12 different types, produced by liver

      What is erythropoiesis and its characteristics? - ANSWER- -the process
      of RBC production
      -produced by bone marrow from stem cells, production is controlled by
      erythropoietin(released by kidneys)
      What are the functions of hemoglobin and its structure? - ANSWER- -to
      transport O2 in blood
      -4 chains with 1 heme group each that contains iron that binds oxygen
      What is the oxygen-hemoglobin dissociation curve? - ANSWER- factors
      that influence oxygen-hemoglobin binding and release
      What are the characteristics of Right Shift in the oxygen-hemoglobin
      dissociation curve? - ANSWER- -hemoglobin has a low affinity to O2,
      so oxygen is released to tissues
      -pH is down, DPG is up, and temp is up
      What are the characteristics of Left Shift in the oxygen-hemoglobin
      dissociation curve? - ANSWER- -hemoglobin has a high affinity to
      oxygen, so it doesn't release O2 to the tissues
      -pH is up, DPG is down, and temp is down
      What is hematocrit and its normal values for males and females? -
      ANSWER- -the oxygen carrying capacity of blood
      -average male percentage range: 43-49%
      -average female percentage range: 37-43%

      What is the function of iron in blood, the 2 proteins associated with it,
      and their functions? - ANSWER- -iron binds oxygen, and it is
      transported in hemoglobin in RBCs
      -transferrin: transports iron along the body
      -ferritin: stores iron along the body
      What are the characteristics of RBCs? - ANSWER- -around 120 day
      lifespan
      -shape: biconcave disc
      -destroyed in the spleen by macrophages(WBCs)
      When RBCs are destroyed in the spleen, what is released? - ANSWER- -
      chains of amino acids, iron, and heme that gets broken down into
      bilirubin
      What is hemostasis? - ANSWER- the process in which our body stops
      bleeding
      What are the 2 types of hemostasis? - ANSWER- -platelet
      plug(primary): for minor injuries
      -clot formation(secondary): for severe injuries, used along with platelet
      plug
      What are the 3 steps in primary hemostasis? - ANSWER- -vessel injury
