Case Ico-delete Highlights
A 42-year-old woman presents for an evaluation of back pain. She states that she has a history of recurrent UTIs; she notes that on occasion her urine appears red. Upon physical examination, she demonstrates CVA tenderness. Her vital signs include blood pressure of 145/90 mm Hg, respiratory rate of 16 breaths/min, and heart rate of 72 bpm. Urinalysis shows leukocyte esterase 1+, protein trace, and blood 3+. The microscopic examination reveals 5-10 WBCs/hpf and 20-30 RBCs/hpf. An abdominal ultrasound demonstrates multiple, bilateral fluid collections within the kidneys.

Question
What, if any, is the most likely underlying renal pathology?

Answers

Answer 1

Answer:

The correct answer would be - polycystic kidney disease.

Explanation:

The given clinical picture or information suggests that it is most probably an infection that takes place in one or both the kidneys and leads to the setting of polycystic kidney disease.

The given symptoms such as abdominal or flank pain, recurrent UTIs, blood in the urine, and hypertension are characteristic symptoms of polycystic kidney disease. Cystic lesions found on abdominal ultrasound are a confirmation of the disorder.

The key disease of this polycystic disorder is Goodpasture syndrome which shows symptoms of both glomerulonephritis and pulmonary hemorrhages, and medullary sponge kidney disorder.

Answers

Answer:

urinary bladder

Explanation:

In biology, there are five levels of organization namely: cell, tissue, organ, system, and organism. A collection of one forms the other, starting from the smallest CELLS. The human excretory system consists of organs that make it up.

Kidney is one of the organs that make up the excretory system. According to this question, the urinary bladder is also an ORGAN, which means that the kidney and bladder as ORGANS are functioning at the same level of organization in the excretory system.

The cells were kept in a dilute salt solution. They were then transferred to distilled
water.
Explain what will happen to each of these two cells when they are placed into distilled water.

Answers

When plant cells are placed in salt solution their appearance is different to when they are placed in distilled water. ... Therefore, water moves out of the cell across the partially permeable membrane by osmosis and the cell becomes flaccid as the cell membrane peels away from the cell wall

When cells are put in a dilute salt solution, water move out of the cell and into the salt solution by osmosis. This happens because the solution is more concentrated than the cell (meaning the solution has less water molecules than the cell) and by definition, osmosis is the movement of water molecules from a region of high concentration (of water molecules) to a region of lower concentration (of water molecules). When the cells lose water, the become flaccid or plasmolysed.

When these cells are placed in distilled water (pure water with no dissolved salts in it), water molecules from the distilled water move into the cell by osmosis. This can lead to cell lysis.

Which is an example of why the process of photosynthesis is important to life on Earth?- - Grass uses photosynthesis to produce glucose, which is used within the grass for growth.
- Fungi use photosynthesis to decompose dead and decaying plant matter.
- Ectothermic animals use photosynthesis to convert sunlight into energy for cell functions.
- Green plants use photosynthesis to remove oxygen gas from the atmosphere and replenish the earth’s carbon dioxide.

Answers

Answer:

The correct answer is: A) Grass uses photosynthesis to produce glucose, which is used within the grass for growth.

Explanation:

Photosynthesis is the process by which green plants, which include algae, take in the energy from the sun and combines it with carbon dioxide (and water) to form benificial sugars.

Photosynthesis refers to the process by which the green plants, as well as algae, utilize the energy from the sun in combination with the carbon dioxide as well as water to form simple sugars. This is how the harmful gas carbion dioxide can be destroyed and elimanated.

Explanation:

Glucose reabsorption takes place in the proximal tubule of the nephron, a tube leading out of Bowman's capsule. The cells that line the proximal tubule recapture valuable molecules, including glucose.Under normal circumstances, up to 180 g/day of glucose is filtered by the renal glomerulus and virtually all of it is subsequently reabsorbed in the proximal convoluted tubule.

Select three examples of resistance to antibiotics that is due to an altered cellular target of the drug. Multiple select question. The activity of beta-lactamase Addition of acetyl-CoA to chloramphenicol Alteration of an enzyme involved in folic acid synthesis A change in the structure of 23S rRNA The terminal D-alanine of pentapeptide mutates to D-serine

Answers

Answer:

- Alteration of an enzyme involved in folic acid synthesis

- A change in the structure of 23S rRNA

- The terminal D-alanine of pentapeptide mutates to D-serine

Explanation:

Antibiotic resistance is the phenomenon by which microorganisms naturally have, acquire, or develop the ability to defeat the drugs designed to eliminate them. For example, trimethoprim is able to bind with the enzyme dihydrofolate reductase (DHFR) in order to inhibit the folic acid synthesis pathway. Sulfonamides (sulfa drugs) competitively inhibit the incorporation of para-aminobenzoic acid (​PABA) into folic acid and thus also prevent the synthesis of folic acid. Ribosomes are organelles where proteins are synthesized. The 23S rRNA is a component of the large subunit (50S) of bacteria and archaea ribosomes. In consequence, it is expected that a modification in the structure of 23S rRNA alters protein synthesis. Finally, vancomycin acts by binding the terminal D-Ala-D-Ala residues of the polymeric lipid-PP-disaccharide-pentapeptides and thus inhibits cell wall synthesis in Gram-positive bacteria. In consequence, it is expected that a mutation at the terminal D-alanine that modifies this sequence alters the vancomycin binding site and thus also confers antibiotic resistance.
