A client is diagnosed with impairment of cellular apoptosis. Which disease can this condition cause?
Cancer at the location of the process
Degenerative neurological diseases
Necrosis of involved tissues
Infarction of the affected area
Answer explanation
ANS: 1
Chapter: Chapter 2, Cellular Injury,
Page: 20
Certain cancers arise when cells lose the ability to program their own destruction, a process known as apoptosis, and go on to have an abnormally prolonged life span. These cells begin to divide uncontrollably and
invade other tissues.

During an endoscopic examination on a client, it is found that the client has acid reflux. Which
condition associated with gastroesophageal reflux disease (GERD) warrants close monitoring and
aggressive treatment?
Peptic ulcer disease
Malabsorption syndrome
Barrett’s esophagus
Hiatal hernia
Answer explanation
ANS: 3
Chapter: Chapter 2, Cellular Injury, Adaptations, and Maladaptive Changes
Page: 12
Barrett’s esophagus is a serious complication of GERD. In GERD, the lower esophageal squamous epithelial cells can undergo a
metaplastic change into columnar stomachlike cells. This condition develops
into Barrett’s esophagus, which requires close monitoring and aggressive
treatment because of the risk of esophageal cancer.

The nurse is providing care for a client who recently had a skin lesion surgically removed. Which
information in the histology report indicates the lesion is malignant?
Examined cells are poorly differentiated.
Cells present with orderly architecture.
Edges of the specimen are unaffected.
Specimen contains well-differentiated cells.
Answer explanation
ANS: 1
Chapter: Chapter 2, Cellular Injury, Adaptations, and Maladaptive Changes
Page: 13
Neoplastic cells can appear very different from the healthy cells within their tissue of origin. Poorly differentiated cells are indicative of a malignancy

A genetically programmed cell death is a process that can destroy cells that are no longer needed.
Which term applies to this biological process?
Atrophy
Apoptosis
Hypertrophy
Neoplasia
Answer explanation

Which condition describes the increase in size of a weightlifter’s muscles?
Hypertrophy
Metaplasia
Atrophy
Dysplasia
Answer explanation
ANS: 1
Chapter: Chapter 2, Cellular Injury, Adaptations, and Maladaptive Changes
Page: 17
Hypertrophy is the increase in size of an organ or tissue due to the enlargement of its component cells. Muscle growth is due to physiological hypertrophy, which is caused by angiogenesis.

While caring for an obese client who has undergone an abdominal surgery, the nurse notices the
client has bouts of vomiting. For which complication of healing is the client at risk?
Dehiscence
Pressure ulcers
Adhesions
Keloids
Answer explanation
ANS: 1
Chapter: Chapter 9, Infection and Inflammation
Page: 170
Obese clients are at higher risk of experiencing dehiscence
because the fatty tissues do not readily heal. In addition, vomiting increases
intra-abdominal pressure, thus creating a higher risk of dehiscence.

Which component of the blood does the nurse associate with surrounding and consuming foreign
material?
White blood cells
Blood plasma
Red blood cells
Blood platelets

Which component enables the blood vessels to dilate and become more permeable during the
vascular phase of inflammation?
White blood corpuscles
Blood platelets
Inflammatory mediators
C-reactive proteins
Answer explanation
ANS: 3
Chapter: Chapter 9, Infection and Inflammation
Page: 160
The inflammatory mediator histamine enables the blood vessel to dilate and become more permeable at the site of inflammation during vascular
phase III.
