WGU pathophysiology D236-Exam Questions and Answers 2022/2023 What is Starling's Law of Capillary forces? How does this explain why a nutritionally deficient child would have edema? - ANSWER Starling's Law describes how fluids move across the capillary membrane. There are two major opposing forces that act to balance each other, hydrostatic pressure (pushing water out of the capillaries) and osmotic pressure (including oncontic pressure, which pushes fluid into the capillaries). Bot...

Psychology 1101 - Chapter 2 (Neuroscience) 100% Correct The study of how the brain and nervous system affect mental processes and behavior. neuroscience Cells in the nervous system that transmit information. neurons Brain cells that provide important support functions for the neurons and are involved in the formation of myelin. glia cells A fatty, waxy substance that insulates portions of some neurons in the nervous system. myelin The part of the neuron that contains the nucle...

The nervous system is composed of what two main classes of cells? What are they? correct answersNeurons and glial cells -- neurons = the basic signaling units that transmit information through the nervous system -- glial cells = non neural cells that provide structural support and electrical insulation to neurons. Glia are involved in metabolic functions, repair and protection of neurons, and improve conduction of signals What does presynaptic and postsynaptic mean? correct answersMost ...
