Match Each Nutrition Term with the Appropriate Definition

Question 61

Matching

Match each nutrition term with the appropriate definition.

Premises:

Responses:

heart failure

a chronic, progressive disease characterized by obstructed blood flow in the coronary arteries

homocysteine

strokes caused by the obstruction of blood flow to brain tissue

essential hypertension

cells that line the inner surfaces of blood vessels, lymphatic vessels, and body cavities

endothelial cells

inadequate blood supply within a tissue due to obstructed blood flow

ischemic strokes

brief ischemic strokes that cause short-term neurological symptoms

cardiac output

a condition characterized by the heart's inability to pump adequate blood to the body's cells, resulting in fluid accumulation in the tissues

ischemia

hypertension with an unknown cause

atherogenic

hypertension that results from a known physiological abnormality

coronary heart disease

able to initiate or promote atherosclerosis

transient ischemic attacks

the volume of blood pumped by the heart within a specified period of time

embolus

death of heart muscle caused by a sudden obstruction in blood flow

aneurysm

an abnormal particle, such as a blood clot or air bubble, that travels in the blood

hemorrhagic strokes

sudden death of brain cells due to impaired blood flow to the brain or rupture of an artery in the brain

cardiac arrhythmias

abnormal heart rhythms

myocardial infarction

the formation or presence of a blood clot in blood vessels

secondary hypertension

an amino acid produced during the conversion of methionine to cysteine

hypertriglyceridemia

an abnormal enlargement or bulging of a blood vessel (usually an artery) caused by weakness in the blood vessel wall

thrombosis

severe malnutrition that develops in heart failure patients

cardiac cachexia

strokes caused by bleeding within the brain, which destroys or compresses brain tissue

stroke

elevated blood triglyceride levels
