Exam 2 (vB) 4. Select all that apply: Which signs would you expect to see in a patient who suffers from hypothyroidism? A. Weight loss B. Increased blood pressure C. Bradycardia D. Weight gain E. Increased body temperature
My answer was correct. Hypothyroidism is when your body doesn't produce enough hormones that keep the body temp, heart rate, and all things that have to do with your metabolism balance. The symptoms include cold sensitivity which means they would have low body temp. They would have weight gain because your body is not breaking down the fat and uses less energy and bradycardia (low hart rate). 5. Calcitonin is secreted in response to which of the following changes in the blood? A. Increased blood Ca++ B. Decreased blood Ca++ C. Increased blood glucose levels D. Decreased blood glucose levels
Calcitonin is involved in helping to regulate levels of calcitonin and phosphate in the
blood, opposing the action of parathyroid hormone. I knew Calcitonin reduces calcium levels in the blood. I guess I was confused reading the question thinking that it was asking what it does which would be reducing. When the calcium levels in
the blood increase or is high calcitonin comes into place to decrease it or reduce. 6. Which of the following conditions is likely to cause tetany? A. Low blood sugar levels This study source was downloaded by 100000839798821 from CourseHero.com on 02-16-2022 11:28:42 GMT -06:00
