Acute inflammation (Vascular stage - Answer✅✅

idiopathic - Answer✅✅unknown cause

cell - Answer✅✅The basic unit of structure and function in living things

Structure supports ___________> - Answer✅✅function

Diseases are made up in cells then..... - Answer✅✅transferred to the systems

cell membrane - Answer✅✅Semi-permeable, therefore maintains homeostasis
controls movement in and out of the cell

Nucleus - Answer✅✅Control center of the cell

Cytoplasm - Answer✅✅covers the nucleus

organelles - Answer✅✅within the cytoplasm "workhouse"

Cell membrane transport - Answer✅✅-Diffusion

,-ion pumps
-channels
-endocytosis
-exocytosis

Proteins - Answer✅✅transport mechanisms- assist with transport of ion and other
molecules across plasma membrane

Protein act as what on a cell surface? - Answer✅✅receptors - this binds substances
including hormones

Proteins form what to allow for transportation to a cell? - Answer✅✅channels

Enzymes are what? - Answer✅✅protein receptors

ion channels - Answer✅✅channel link receptors

passive transport - Answer✅✅Requires NO energy, Movement of molecules from
high to low concentration: simple diffusion, facilitated, osmosis

active transport - Answer✅✅requires energy, low to high. moves ions again a
concentration gradient.
ex: Na-K ATPase pump

Endocytosis - Answer✅✅>bringing something into the cell
-the cell membrane envelops it and it forms a vesicle tobring into cell (old RBCs)

Phagocytosis - Answer✅✅bringing large molecules in, such as bacteria

Pinocytosis - Answer✅✅Cell drinking
A type of endocytosis in which the cell ingests extracellular fluid and its dissolved
solutes. forms small vesicles

receptor mediated - Answer✅✅A type of endocytosis in which the cell acquires
bulk quantities of specific substances, even though they may not be very
concentrated in the extracellular fluid.
-used for cholesterol, Vitamin B12 and iron to bring into the cell

Exocytosis - Answer✅✅How the cell gets rid of waste.
Exits the cell.

Osmosis causes what - Answer✅✅movement from "more watery to "less watery".

What does the cell do in the body? - Answer✅✅-movement
-conductivity(nerves = heart)
-metabolic absorption (intestines)
-secretion (enzymes)

, -excretion (urine, tears)
-respiration
-reproduction
-communication

GI system - Answer✅✅-Mouth > esophagus > stomach > small intestine > large
intestine > liver > pancreas > gall bladder > rectum > anus

Excretion - Answer✅✅removal

secretion - Answer✅✅movement

What do adaptive changes allow the cell to do? - Answer✅✅survive and maintain
some degree of function. If the cell makes no changes or makes maladaptive changes
as a result of stress, the cell will not survive.

What is cellular adaptation? - Answer✅✅the cell's response to escape and protect
itself from injury

What are some functions thats require constant adaptation in humans? -
Answer✅✅-temp
-pH
-HR
- BP
-RR
-vasoconstriction/vasodilation
-metabolism

causes of atrophy - Answer✅✅-lack of use
-denervation
-estrogen decrease
-ischemia
-malnutrition

hypertrophy of the right ventricle - Answer✅✅high blood pressure, decreased
cardiac output, pushing blood against vasoconstriction

Hyperplasia response to injusry - Answer✅✅compensatory, hormonal and
pathological
ex. liver damage. pollups int he intestine. prostate can cause voiding problems, skin
(sebaceous gland increase)

Metaplasia - Answer✅✅changing from one type of mature tissue to another

Metaplasia example - Answer✅✅•Pathological adaptation: Barrett's esophagus -
gastric simple columnar
epithelium extends past junction into esophagus
