Question 1 of 5
What is a negative effect of immobility on the cardiovascular system?
Correct Answer: D
Rationale: Venous stasis is a negative effect of immobility on the cardiovascular system. Immobility can lead to blood pooling in the veins due to lack of movement, increasing the risk of blood clots.
Choices A, B, and C are incorrect because immobility does not lead to an increase in high density lipoprotein, circulation, or the pumping action of the heart.
Question 2 of 5
What occurs during stage three of bone healing?
Correct Answer: B
Rationale: During stage three of bone healing, callus formation occurs. This process involves the formation of a soft callus made of collagen and cartilage, which bridges the gap between bone fragments.
Choice A, consolidation, typically happens in later stages and involves the hardening of the callus into mature bone.
Choices C and D are incorrect as granulation formation and hematoma formation occur in earlier stages of bone healing, specifically stages one and two, respectively.
