Low serum albumin levels (hypoalbuminemia) can cause edema because: A) oncotic pressure increases. B) oncotic pressure decreases. C) osmotic pressure increases. D) hydrostatic pressure decreases. Ans: B Complexity: Easy Ahead: Basic Cell Function and Structure Subject: Chapter 1 Title: Cellular Function 3. Neurotransmitters are packaged into vesicles and then fuse with the cell membrane for release. This is an example of: A) pinocytosis. B) phagocytosis.

What is a possible reason for increased risk for chromosomal abnormalities with older maternal age? A) Ova meiosis is complete by the time a girl is born thereby making them less likely to divide properly. B) The older ova are more likely to have errors during meiosis. C) Older ova are more likely to have p53 gene mutations. D) Ova are continuously produced thereby increasing the chance of creating defective ova.
