type of Hepatitis virus that requires presences of Hepatitis B to replicate

HDV, Hepatitis D

Ileum

primary source for absorption of nutrients

typical early sign of cancer in the ascending colon

occult blood in the stool

prolonged severe stress predisposes to peptic ulcer disease because

of reduced blood flow to the gastric walls & mucous glands

reabsorption of water & electrolytes by the kidneys is directly controlled by

antidiuretic hormone

located in the renal medulla

loop of Henle

mechanism not possible in dialysis when compared to normal kidney function

active transport

indication of pregnancy induced hypertension

rapid or sudden weight gain, high blood pressure

common dose limiting factor for chemotherapy

bone marrow depression

the spread of malignant cells through blood & lymph to distant sites

metastis

cellular division process that produces the chromosomes that are sperm & ova

meoisis

A person with sickle cell trait that is heterozygous

does not display the severe symptoms

Vasodilation in the skin and viscera results directly from:

relaxation of smooth muscle in arterioles

Simple/Closed Pneumothorax

intrapleural pressure is decreased

common source of pulmonary embolism

deep vein thrombosis

carbon dioxide is primarily transported in the blood as

bicarbonate ion

typical pathological changes with broncheitasis

airway obstructions are weak, dilated bronchial walls
