Question 1

​Match the description to the warning signs,symptoms,or contributing factors to stroke and heart disease.Note: Answers may be used more than once.
-High triglyceride levels

Accepted Answer

High triglyceride levels are a contributing factor to heart disease. They can lead to the buildup of plaque in the arteries, increasing the risk of heart disease.

Question 2

​Match the description to the warning signs,symptoms,or contributing factors to stroke and heart disease.Note: Answers may be used more than once.
-​Obesity

Accepted Answer

Obesity is a contributing factor to heart disease as it can lead to conditions like high blood pressure, high cholesterol, and diabetes, which are risk factors for heart disease.

Question 3

​This device consists of a small battery-powered pulse generator with electrode catheters.The electrodes are inserted into a vein and threaded through the vena cava,one to the right atrium,the other into the right ventricle at the apex.

Accepted Answer

An artificial pacemaker is a device that uses a small, battery-powered pulse generator to send electrical impulses to the heart to maintain a normal heart rate and rhythm. The description of electrode catheters being inserted into a vein and threaded through the vena cava to the right atrium and right ventricle matches the setup of an artificial pacemaker.

Question 4

​Match the system(s)involved to the pathology present for congestive heart failure and leukemia.Note: Answers may be used more than once.
-​Immune

Accepted Answer

Leukemia is a type of cancer that affects the blood and bone marrow, which are components of the immune system. Congestive heart failure, on the other hand, primarily involves the cardiovascular system rather than the immune system.

Question 5

​Match the description to the warning signs,symptoms,or contributing factors to stroke and heart disease.Note: Answers may be used more than once.
-​Sudden blurred or decreased vision

Accepted Answer

Sudden blurred or decreased vision can be a warning sign of a stroke, as it may indicate that the blood supply to parts of the brain responsible for vision has been interrupted.

Question 6

​Platelets and injured tissues release thromboplastin,which triggers the ________ process to begin.

Accepted Answer

Thromboplastin plays a crucial role in the clotting process by converting prothrombin into thrombin, which then helps in the formation of a blood clot.

Question 7

When blood enters the vast network of capillaries,called a(n)_____________,it is so dispersed that the rate of flow is reduced to a slow trickle,permitting time for O₂ and nutrients to enter the tissue cells in exchange for CO₂ and waste products.

Accepted Answer

The correct term is "capillary bed," which refers to the network of capillaries in a tissue or organ. This network allows for the slow movement of blood, facilitating the exchange of oxygen, carbon dioxide, nutrients, and waste products between blood and tissues.

Question 8

Question 9

​Match the system(s)involved to the pathology present for congestive heart failure and leukemia.Note: Answers may be used more than once.
-​Pulmonary edema,cough,shortness of breath,can't breathe lying down,pink frothy sputum

Accepted Answer

These symptoms are characteristic of congestive heart failure, where the heart's diminished capacity to pump blood leads to fluid buildup in the lungs, causing pulmonary edema, cough, shortness of breath, difficulty breathing when lying down, and potentially pink frothy sputum.

Question 10

​Match the description to the warning signs,symptoms,or contributing factors to stroke and heart disease.Note: Answers may be used more than once.
-​Loss of balance or coordination when combined with another warning sign

Accepted Answer

Loss of balance or coordination, especially when combined with another warning sign, is a common symptom of a stroke. This occurs due to the disruption of blood flow to parts of the brain that control balance and coordination.

Question 11

​Match the description to the warning signs,symptoms,or contributing factors to stroke and heart disease.Note: Answers may be used more than once.
-Numbness,weakness,or paralysis of face,arm,or leg-especially on one side of the body

Accepted Answer

Numbness, weakness, or paralysis of the face, arm, or leg, especially on one side of the body, is a classic warning sign of a stroke, indicating that part of the brain is not receiving enough blood flow.

Question 12

​Match the system(s)involved to the pathology present for congestive heart failure and leukemia.Note: Answers may be used more than once.
-​Pain due to swelling within from excess WBCs

Accepted Answer

Pain due to swelling from excess WBCs is associated with leukemia, a type of cancer that affects the blood and bone marrow, leading to an overproduction of white blood cells. This can cause swelling and discomfort in various parts of the body. Congestive heart failure, on the other hand, is a condition where the heart's ability to pump blood is decreased, leading to symptoms such as shortness of breath, fatigue, and swelling in the legs and abdomen, but not specifically pain from swelling due to excess WBCs.

Question 13

​Match the description to the warning signs,symptoms,or contributing factors to stroke and heart disease.Note: Answers may be used more than once.
-​Loss of consciousness or severe drowsiness

Accepted Answer

Loss of consciousness or severe drowsiness can be a symptom of a stroke, as it may indicate that the brain is not receiving enough blood flow due to a blockage or hemorrhage.

Question 14

​Match the description to the warning signs,symptoms,or contributing factors to stroke and heart disease.Note: Answers may be used more than once.
-​Development of difficulty in speaking or in understanding simple statements

Accepted Answer

Difficulty in speaking or understanding simple statements is a common warning sign of a stroke, as it can indicate that the brain is not receiving enough blood flow, particularly in areas responsible for language and comprehension.

Question 15

​Match the description to the warning signs,symptoms,or contributing factors to stroke and heart disease.Note: Answers may be used more than once.
-High levels of cholesterol

Accepted Answer

High levels of cholesterol can lead to the buildup of plaques in arteries, which is a significant risk factor for heart disease.
