6. Chronic kidney disease is the gradual decline in renal functions resulting in electrolyte imbalance and protein loss.
Hypocalcemia is seen in CKD.
Hyperphosphatemia with impaired renal excretion of phosphate is also seen in CKD.
Chronic kidney disease is associated with hyperparathyroidism. Hypoparathyroidism do not occur in CKD. Thus hypoparathyroidism is an incorrect event.
Answer: 2.
7. Pre renal failure is an acute kidney disease caused due to reduced blood flow to the kidney resulting in impaired kidney function.
ACE inhibitors are usually associated with ore renal failure.
lisinopriln is ACE inhibitor and associated with pre renal failure.Answer : 1.
8. BMI under 18kg/m2 is indicative of underweight.
Addison diseases is caused due to adrenal insufficiency resulting in decreased steroid hormones. Addison disease causes weight loss and the patient may have BMI less than 18

Graves disease is caused due to autoimmune disorder resulting in hyperthyroidism. It causes weight loss and patient may have BMI less than 18.
Cushing disease results in increased glucocorticoid levels in body. This causes abdominal obesity. It does not cause weight loss and patient will not exhibit BMI less than 18.
