NSG 5003- Advanced Pathophysiology-
Wk 1 (Ch 1-3)
ATP - answer Functions as energy-transferring molecule
Oxidative phosphorylation - answer occurs in mitochondria; mechanism by which
energy is produced from carbs, fats, & proteins
Atrophy - answer decrease in cellular size
Hypertrophy - answer increase in cellular size by increased work demand or hormonal
situation
Hyperplasia - answer increase cellular number by increased cellular division
Dysplasia - answer abnormal change in size, shape, & organization of mature tissue
cells
Metaplasia - answer reversible replacement of one mature cell type by another less
mature cell type
Cell Injury - answercaused by hypoxia
Free Radicals - answercan cause lipid peroxidation or destruction of unsaturated fatty
acids, alterations of proteins, & alterations in DNA
Apoptosis - answercell death from programmed, selective self destruction
Necrosis - answersum of changes after local cell death & includes inflammation & cell
lysis
PTH - answerparathyroid hormone
Buffers - answersubstances that can absorb excess acid/base to minimize fluctuations
in pH
Somatic Death - answerno respirations, no heart beat
Autophagy - answerdegradation process where ell debris encapsulated with in vesicle
that reacts with lysosomes
Cellular Metabolism - answerchemical task of maintaining cellular function
