300

(Select all that apply) decreased ADH release results in:

a. concentrated urine

b. dilute urine

c. increased body fluid volume

d. decreased body fluid volume

b, d. dilute urine, decreased body fluid volume 

400

 What is the proper flow of urine in the kidneys?

a. ureter 

b. minor calyx

c. renal pelvis

d. renal pyramid

e. major calyx

d, b, e, c, a

500

segmental artery, ____ artery, arcuate artery

interlobar artery

know the path of blood through the kidney! hint hint

Fluid-Electrolyte

100

the renin-angiotensin-aldosterone system is stimulated when:

a. sodium concentration is low

b. sodium concentration is high

a. sodium concentration is low

200

(Select all that apply) Which would result in disrupting the electrical conductivity of the heart?

a. hypernatremia

b. hyponatremia

c. hyperkalemia

d. hypokalemia 

c, d. hypokalemia and hyperkalemia

300

which of the following is NOT true about ANP?

a. it results in an increased blood pressure

b. it decreases ADH, renin, and aldosterone production

c. it increases the excretion of sodium and water 

d. it promotes vasodilation

a. it results in an increased blood pressure

rationale: it would result in decreased blood pressure

400

Which of the following is true about aldosterone?

a. it decreases blood pressure

b. it decreases urine output

c. it increases sodium excretion

d. it increases potassium excretion

d. it increases potassium secretion

500

During acidosis, ECF potassium levels would:

a. rise 

b. fall

a. rise 

Acid-Base

100

Arterial blood pH is:

a. 7.0

b. 7.35 

c. 7.4 

c. 7.4

200

This is the first line of defense when it comes to regulating the concentration of hydrogen ions

a. chemical buffer systems

b. brain stem respiratory centers

c. renal mechanisms

a. chemical buffer systems

300

which of the following is a weak base?

a. HCO₃

b. NaHCO₃

b. NaHCO₃

400

If a person is experiencing metabolic acidosis, you would expect their respiratory rate and depth to:

a. increase

b. decrease 

a. increase

respiratory rate increases because they are trying to get rid of H+ ions by releasing more CO2!

500

A person is nervous and is experiencing a panic attack. They are breathing rapidly and deeply. They are most likely going to experience:

a. metabolic acidosis

b. metabolic alkalosis

c. respiratory acidosis

d. respiratory alkalosis 

d. respiratory alkalosis 

rationale: it is respiratory because it involves breathing. it is alkalosis because they are rapidly getting rid of CO2--> leads to getting rid of H+--> leads to increased pH--> alkalosis 

Kidney stuff pt. 2

100

what is the first of the three major renal processes?

a. glomerular filtration

b. tubular reabsorption

c. tubular secretion

a. glomerular filtration

200

which of the following would you NOT want in urine?

a. uric acid

b. creatinine

c. urea

d. protein 

d. protein

300

in the ascending limb of the nephron loop, ___ cannot leave and ____ can leave

a. water cannot leave, solutes can leave

b. solutes cannot leave, water can leave 

a. water cannot leave, solutes can leave 

400

if you have a high blood osmolality, you would expect ADH levels to:

a. increase 

b. decrease 

a. increase

500

a patient's lab results come back and they have a specific gravity of 1.040. you would expect their urine to be?

a. very clear 

b. dark yellow

b. dark yellow

the higher the specific gravity, the more concentrated the urine!

idk if it will be on the test, but it is good to know for future nursing students! :)
