Match each nutrition term with the appropriate definition.

Premises:

Responses:

wasting

abnormal gas exchange between the air and blood, resulting in lower-than-normal oxygen levels and higher-than-normal carbon dioxide levels

respiratory failure triggered by severe lung injury; a medical emergency that causes dyspnea and pulmonary edema and usually requires mechanical ventilation

a disruption in the body's chemical environment due to the effects of disease or injury

shortness of breath

the breakdown of lean tissue that results from disease or malnutrition

a higher-than-normal metabolic rate

a group of lung diseases characterized by persistent obstructed airflow through the lungs and airways; includes chronic bronchitis and emphysema

acid accumulation in the body tissues

relating to the entire body

a whole-body response to acute inflammation; characterized by raised heart and respiratory rates, abnormal white blood cell counts, and altered body temperature
