C) extract energy from organic compounds. D) store calc...

Advanced Patho NURS 5315 exam 1 action potential The process by which excitable cells transmit information from one to another. How is the action potential altered by a potassium imbalance? (Hyperkalemia) The ECF has more K+ ions. The membrane potential becomes more positive (hypopolarized). Cells become MORE excitable. T waves peak. QRS complexes widen. Causes dysrhythmias, weakness, paresthesia. {If membrane potential becomes equal to threshold potential cardiac standstill occurs}...

Nurs 6501 Midterm Exam Review Guide (Weeks 1-6) Cellular Processes and the Genetic Environment 1. Describe cellular processes and alterations within cellular processes. Movement. Muscle cells can generate forces that produce motion. Muscles that are attached to bones produce limb movements, whereas those that enclose hollow tubes or cavities move or empty contents when they contract. For example, the contraction of smooth muscle cells surrounding blood vessels changes the diameter of the vessel...

NURS 5315 Advanced Pathophysiology Ovarian cancer site of metastasis? Peritoneal surfaces, omentum (fold of peritoneum connecting the stomach with other abdominal organs), liver The increased NADH/NAD+ ratio in the liver from ethanol causes: 1. Pyruvate --> lactic acid, causing lactic acidosis 2. Oxaloacetate --> malate. This prevents gluconeogenesis and leads to hypoglycemia 3. Glyceraldehyde-3-phosphate --> glycerol 3- phosphate and combines with fatty acids to form triglyce...
