Question

question 41 (2 points) what is the clinical term for collapsed lung tissue? bronchiectasis emphysema consolidation atelectasis question 42 (2 points) which of the following best describes the process that leads to an acute myocardial infarction? ischemia from vasospasm stable angina worsening under stress ruptured plaque exposing thrombogenic material and clot formation arterial wall thickening from hypertension

Explanation:

• For Question 41: Atelectasis is the clinical term for collapsed lung tissue. Bronchiectasis is the abnormal permanent dilation of the bronchi. Emphysema is a chronic obstructive pulmonary disease characterized by destruction of the alveoli. Consolidation refers to the replacement of air - filled lung tissue with fluid or other substances.
• For Question 42: An acute myocardial infarction is mainly caused by a ruptured atherosclerotic plaque in a coronary artery, which exposes thrombogenic material and leads to clot formation, blocking blood flow to the myocardium. Ischemia from vasospasm can cause angina but is not the most common cause of acute myocardial infarction. Stable angina worsening under stress is not the primary mechanism for acute myocardial infarction. Arterial wall thickening from hypertension is a long - term process and not the immediate cause of acute myocardial infarction.

Answer:

Question 41: D. Atelectasis
Question 42: C. Ruptured plaque exposing thrombogenic material and clot formation
