Directions: Circle the word in each group that is least similar to the others. Indicate the similarity of the three words on the line below each question.

1. plasma             transcellular       intracellular        interstitial

2. ion     precipitate          anion     cation

3. hydrogen ion                 sodium ion          chloride ion        potassium ion   

4. K+      hyperkalemia    hyponatremia   hypokalemia

5. tenting             dehydration       kussmaul respirations    poor skin turgor

6. pH        hyperuricemia               acidosis                alkalosis

7. Ca2+                 osteoclastic activity         PTH        respiratory acidosis

8. pH 7.8              increased [H+]             acidosis                     pH 7.2

9. alkalosis          decreased [H+]                 pH 7.6                   pH 7.2

10. hyperkalemia             hypocalcemia        kaliuresis         potassium

11. hypoventilation         acidosis                pH 7.3                   hypocalcemia

Answer 1

1 .Plasma tanscellular   intracellular interstitial

Ans;Plasma

Here other three words are related to space and transportation between the cells but plasma is the fluid.

2. ion precipitate anion cation

Ans;Precipitate

In this ion,anon,cation are ions but precipitate is the byproduct of achemical reaction

3. Hydrogen ion sodium ion chlorine ion potassium ion

Ans;chlorine ion

Hydrogen ion,sodium ion,potasium ion are cations those are charged with positive(+)

4. k+ hyperkalemia hyponatremia hypokalemia

Ans;hyponatremia

k+,hyperkalemia,hypokalemia are the words related to potassium

5. tenting dehydration kussmaul respiration poor skin turgor

Ans; kusmaul respiration

other three words tenting,dehydration,poor skin turgor are related with each other,tenting is the skin turgor in dehydrated condition of the body.

6. pH hyperuricemia acidosis alkalosis

Ans;Hyperuricemia

Here acidosis,alkalosis &pH are related to each other as pH level itself denotes the other to words acidosis alkalosis where as Hyperuricemia is the increased level of uric acid in the body.

7. Ca2+ Osteoclastic Activity PTH respiratory acidosis

Ans;Respiratory acidosis

In this question respiratory acidosis is dissimilar word,other three words are similar s they are related with calcium metabolism

8. pH7.8 increased[H+] acidosis pH7.2

Ans;pH7.8

Other tree words are words related to low pH level

9. alkalosis decreased[H+] pH7.6 pH7.2

Ans;pH7.2

Other three words are related to high pH level

10. Hyperkalemia hypocalcemia kaliuresis potassium

Ans;Hypocalcemia

In this contest other three words are related with potassium metabolism

11. Hypoventilation acidosis pH7.3 hypocalcemia

Ans;pH7.3

Other three words are related with decreased pH levels.
