Advanced Pathophysiology Midterm
Pathogenesis - answer encompasses when the disease process first begins to the point
when the disease presents itself (goal of study is to prevent disease and facilitate early
diagnosis/intervention
-Communication
-Respiration
-Reproduction
-Ingestion
-Transportation
-Secretion - answer What are the 6 functions of a cell
Endoplasmic Reticulum - answer Cellular component: a complex network of tubules,
producing proteins and fats, important in the regulation of ions within the cells
Smooth Endoplasmic Reticulum - answer Cellular component: synthesis of lipids,
lipoproteins, and steroid hormones, regulation of intracellular calcium
Rough Endoplasmic Reticulum - answer Cellular component: synthesis of proteins via
bound ribosomes, production of lysosomal enzymes (acid hydrolases)
Golgi Apparatus - answer Cellular component: membranous structure, prepares
substances produced by the ER for secretion out of the cell
Lysosome - answer Cellular component: small sacs surrounded by membrane, digests
cellular debris with hydrolytic enzymes, important in the metabolism of particular
substances
Peroxisomes - answer Cellular component: membrane-enclosed sacs, contains
enzymes called oxidases that neutralize oxygen free radicals, promotes cell survival by
neutralizing harmful substances potentially damaging to the cell
Proteasomes - answerCellular component: large organelles that recognize abnormally
folded/formed proteins, involved in proteolysis (breakdown of proteins)
Mitochondria - answerCellular component: site of aerobic cellular respiration, contains
the cytochrome enyzmes of terminal electron transport necessary for production of ATP
1. Passive transport (diffusion [facilitated: glucose] and osmosis)
2. Active transport (Na out of the cell using Na/K pump) - answerIdentify the two forms
of cellular transportation and examples for each (2)(1)
