1. Describe how your body responds to an infection. 2. Identify role of DNA changes in congenital abnormalities. 3. How does development disrupts congenital abnormalities? 4. Describes factors that disrupt homeostasis and how disruptions affect wellbeing. T cells produce cytokines, which stimulate B cells. B cells produce antibodies. Mutations in genes or chromosomal abnormalities Alterations of DNA (ex) Fluid and electrolyte shifts can cause n/v or dysrhythmias. 5. Explain RAAS Renin-angiotensin-aldosterone system 1. Reduce blood flow causes kidneys to release renin > produce angiotensin I > converts angiotensin I to angiotensin II > vasoconstriction > release aldosterone > kidneys conserve sodium and water > Result less water lost in urine and blood pressure maintained. 6. DKA increased anion gap, decreased HCO3 7. How do kidneys compensate for alkalosis 8. Untreated acidosis leads to an increase in which electrolyte? retain H and excrete HCO3 Potassium 9. West Nile Virus Transmitted through the bite of an infected mosquito. Severe signs and symptoms; high fever, headache and stiff neck 10. Lyme disease Tick-borne disease caused by the spirochete Borrelia burgdorferi.
