Question : The major impact of the physiological changes that occur with aging is: Student Answer: Reduced physiological reserve Reduced homeostatic mechanisms Impai red immunological response All of the above Instructor Explanation: The major impact of all of these physiological changes can be highlighted with three primary points. First, there is a reduced physiological reserve of most body systems, particularly cardiac, respiratory, and renal. Second, there are reduced homeostatic mechanisms ...
