Facilitated diffusion
Frage 12
Frage
Maternal and Foetal blood fluoride levels tend to be..
Antworten
-
Similar, therefore related.
-
Completely different, therefore unrelated.
Frage 13
Frage
The three phases of fluoride transport are:
1. Tissue fluid / soft tissue eq[blank_start]uilibration[blank_end] and dilution
2. Hard tissue deposition in tissues with high F [blank_start]affin.[blank_end]
3. [blank_start]Renal[blank_end] clearance of F which not deposited in skeleton
Antworten
-
uilibration
-
affinity
-
Renal
Frage 14
Frage
Fluoride accumulates in the soft tissues.
Antworten
- True
- False
Frage 15
Frage
Saliva and Tissue fluid have similar fluoride levels to blood plasma.
Antworten
- True
- False
Frage 16
Frage
Why does fluoride have such a high affinity for bone?
Antworten
-
It has a high affinity for hydroxyapatite in bone, preferentially forming fluorapatite.
-
It has a high affinity for collagen in bone, preferentially forming fluoridated collagen.
-
It has a high affinity for receptors in bone marrow which allow it to bind readily

Antworten
-
24 hrs
-
2 years
-
12 hrs
-
1 hr
Frage 18
Frage
What factors might impact on renal clearance of fluoride?
Antworten

-
Fluid intake
-
Cirrhosis
-
Half life of fluoride
Frage 19
Frage
Fluoride interferes with acid production by bacteria. How does it inhibit it?
Antworten
-
Inhibits the enolase enzyme involved in glycolysis (which ultimately produces lactic acid)
-
Inhibits the alpha-ketoglutarate enzyme involved in glycolysis (which ultimately produces lactic acid)
-
Inhibits the hexokinase enzyme involved in glycolysis (which ultimately produces lactic acid)
