Which type of embalming solution removes excess moisture? –
ANSWER- Hypertonic.
Which type of embalming solution add moisture? – ANSWERHypotonic/Humectants.
Which type of embalming solution should you use for normal bodies? –
ANSWER- Slightly hypotonic.
Which type of solution should you use on normal or dehydrated bodies?
- ANSWER- Hypotonic.
Which type of solution should you use on a dehydrated body? –
ANSWER- Hypertonic.
Embalming fluid is an aqueous solution of: – ANSWER- Solid, liquid
and gases.
Solutions prepared via manufacturer’s directions will be: – ANSWERHypotonic.
Osmosis: – ANSWER- Movement of solvent from low solute
(hypotonic) to high solute (hypertonic) separated by a
semipermeable membrane.
Dialysis: – ANSWER- Movement of solutes.
Pressure filtration: – ANSWER- Solvent & solutes.
Diffusion: – ANSWER- Movement of ANY substance from high
concentration to low concentration.
Diffusion in the dead body: – ANSWER- Intravascular (wihin the
capillaries) into the tissues and cells (extravascular); involves movement
of SOLUTE & SOLVENT into interstitital tissues.
Capillaries: – ANSWER- Connect arterioles and venules; smallest body
blood vessel; no tunica media or advenntitia.
Large, Elastic or Conducting Arteries: – ANSWER- Conduct blood to
the muscular arteries; tunica media has more elastic fibers than smooth
muscle.
Examples of large/elastic/conducting arteries: – ANSWER- Aorta,
innominate, cc, subclavian, common iliac.
Medium, Muscular or Distributing Arteries: – ANSWER- Distribute
blood to various parts of the body; tunica media has more smooth
muscle and less elastic tissue; capable of greater
vasoconstriction/dilation.
Examples of medium/muscular/distributing arteries: – ANSWERAxillary, brachial, radial.
Hypotonic Solution: – ANSWER- A solution having less
concentration of dissolved SOLUTE than the solution its compared to.
Hypertonic Solution: – ANSWER- A solution having greater
concentration of dissolved SOLUTE than the solution its compared to.
Incandescent: – ANSWER- Normal electric light bulbs; high in yellow;
warm light; downward thrust.
Flourescent: – ANSWER- Cool, low temperature lights; do not throw off
heat; high in blue and green but lack red; tend to make objects look dull
or faded.
Three dimensions of color: – ANSWER- Hue, value and intensity.
Hue: – ANSWER- First dimension of color; tells chromatic name of the
color and if its warm or cool.
Value: – ANSWER- Second dimension of color; deals with lightness and
darkness of the color.
Light colors have a: – ANSWER- High value.
Dark colors have a: – ANSWER- Low value.
Intensity: – ANSWER- Third dimension of color; amount of strength a
color has; purity/dullness of a chromatic hue.
Grayed hue is a: – ANSWER- Tone.
Pure chromatic color is said to be: – ANSWER- At full intensitiy.
3 color schemes that use 2 colors: – ANSWER- Analogous,
complements, contrast non-complementary.
3 color schemes that use 3 colors: – ANSWER- Analogous, triads, splitcomplementary.
3 color schemes that use 4 colors: – ANSWER- Analogous, double
compliments, tetrads.
Primary Hue: – ANSWER- R-Y-B; a combo of 22 remaining primary
colors- hence a secondary hue.
