A nurse is reviewing the arterial blood gas values for a client. The pH is 7.32, PaC02 48 mm Hg, and the HCO3 is 23 mEq/L. The nurse should recognize that these findings indicate which of the following acid base balances?

Upon removing a dressing from a wound, the nurse notices a strong odor. What is the appropriate priority nursing action?

Which key intervention will be implemented by the nurse after the client has undergone a hypophysectomy? (select 3)

Scientists have discovered genetic variants that are associated with dyslexia.

Most cases of trisomy 21 occur because of an error in which meiotic division?

Sickle cell anemia is an autosomal recessive disease caused by a mutation in the gene that encodes the hemoglobin protein. Homozygous mutations in this gene lead to the production of mutant hemoglobin protein. When only mutant hemoglobin protein is produced, red blood cells (RBCs) adopt an abnormal sickle shape and their function is impaired. On December 8, 2023 the FDA approved Casgevy to treat sickle cell anemia. Casgevy is the first medical use of the CRISPR-Cas gene-editing system. Casgevy uses CRISPR-Cas9 technology to cut a gene in the genome. What gene is targeted by the Cas9 used in Casgevy?

A yeast strain was exposed to a chemical mutagen. As expected, exposure to mutagen resulted in a DNA sequence change in an essential gene (required for survival) you examined. Yet this mutation did not result in any lethal phenotype (cause death). Which of the following answers would BEST explain this apparent discrepancy?

Which of the following is NOT true regarding how genetic variants/mutations occur and result in genetic diseases and disorders?

Choose the best answer from the choices below. A couple has a child with cystic fibrosis. Neither parent has cystic fibrosis. This couple wants to have a second child. What is the probability that this second child will have cystic fibrosis?
