If the albumin level in the blood were to decrease, than fluid would tend to ________the capillaries via _______________.

A. enter, diffusion

B. leave, osmosis

C. enter, osmosis

D. leave, filtration

The innermost lining of the blood vessel:

A. is termed the endothelium

B. is continuous with the epicardium

C. contains smooth muscle to control vessel radius

D. all of the above

Which of the following does NOT occur to compensate for a fall in blood pressure below normal?

A. Cardiac output is increased.

B. Peripheral vessels will vasodilate

C. Heart rate is increased.

D. Stroke volume is increased.

Select all of the following that apply to the process of mitosis:

(hint: you will need to check more than one answer here)

A.involves prophase, metaphase, anaphase, and telophase

B. the process by which non sex cells (gametes) divide

C.occurs constantly in some tissues of the body

D. is the process by which the ova and sperm are produced

In low oxygen conditions:

A. Erythropoietin (EPO) is released from the kidneys

B. WBCs become activated to reproduce

C. Erythropoietin (EPO) is released from the myeloid tissue

D. RBCs undergo mitosis

E. all of the above

Solution

1.B. leave, osmosis .

If albumin level decreases, osmotic pressure of blood falls and blood will become hypotonic due to which fluid will leak out of capillaries by osmosis.

2. A. Is termed endothelium.

3.B. Peripheral vessels will vasodilate

4. A. Involves prophase, metaphase, anaphase, telophase.

B. Process by which non sex cells divide

C. Occurs constantly in some tissue of the body.

Gametic cells show both mitosis as well as meiosis while as somatic cells show only mitosis.

5. A. Erythropoietin (EPO) is released from the kidneys.

During low oxygen conditions (hypoxia) , kidneys are stimulated to secrete erythropoitin which stimulates bone marrow to produce RBCs.
