Answer 1

primary dilution

Question 2

determined by embalming analysis and prepared by embalmer

Answer 2

primary dilution

Question 3

to determine strength of primary dilution

Answer 3

C x V = C’ x V’

Question 4

strenght of concentrated fluid; index

Answer 4

C

Question 5

amount of concentrated fluid; vol. of fluid

Answer 5

V

Question 6

strength of diluted fluid; strength of solution (%)

Answer 6

C’

Question 7

Answer 7

V’

Question 8

1 bottle =

Answer 8

16 oz.

Question 9

ounces in a gallon

Answer 9

128

Question 10

recommended strenght of injection fluid

Answer 10

1.5-2%

Question 11

recommended injection fluid

Answer 11

1 gal. diluted fluid for every 50lbs.

Question 12

weakening of embalming fluid by fluids in the body both vascular and interstitial

Answer 12

secondary dilution

Question 13

conditions that cause secondary dilution to vary

Answer 13

edema; dehydration

Question 14

will increase amount of secondary dilution

Answer 14

edema

Question 15

will decrease amount of secondary dilution

Answer 15

dehydration

Question 16

movement of embalming (arterial) solution from point of injection throughout the arterial system and into the capillaries

Answer 16

fluid distribution

Question 17

movement of molecules/other particles from area of greater concentration to area of lesser concentration until a uniform concentration is reached; from intra to extravascular

Answer 17

fluid diffusion

Question 18

positive intravascular pressure causing passage of embalming fluid through the capillary wall to mix with intersitial fluids; movement from intra-extravascular position

Answer 18

pressure filtration

Question 19

passage of a solvent from a solution of lessert to one of greater solute concentration when 2 solutions are seperated by a semipermeable membrane

Answer 19

osmosis

Question 20

process by which most embalming chemicals move from interstial fluids through the cell wall and into the cell

Answer 20

osmosis

Question 21

solution having an equal concentration of dissolved solute to that it is compared

Answer 21

isotonic solution

Question 22

solution having lesser concentration of dissolved solute than the solution to which it is compared

Answer 22

hypotonic solution

Question 23

will move toward the more concentrated solution; would want in a dehydrated case to plump them up

Answer 23

hypotonic solution

Question 24

solution having greater concentration of dissolved solute than solution to which it is compared

Answer 24

hypertonic solution

Question 25

will not move; instead other solution will move toward it to create equilibrium; would want in edema case

Answer 25

hypertonic solution

Question 26

seperation of substances in solution by the difference in their rates of difuffusion through a semipermeable membrane

Answer 26

dialysis

Question 27

extravascular movement of preservative fluids by gravitational force to the dependent areas of body

Answer 27

gravitational filtratration

Question 28

distention of superficial vessels; large vol. of blood drainage; reduction of intravascular blood discoloration, dye tracing, loss of elasticity of tissues (firmness), drying of tissues, tissue distention, bleaching of tips

Answer 28

signs of fluid distribution and diffusion

Question 29

methods of improving fluid distribution

Answer 29

increase rate of flow; increase injection pressure; restrict the drainage; massage body; lower the arms
