Imbalance - ✔✔ correct answer a state or condition in which different things do not occur in equal or
proper amounts
Solutes - ✔✔ correct answer substance dissolved in a solution
Passive - ✔✔ correct answer inactive
Transmission - ✔✔ correct answer The way a microbial organism moves from one host to another.
Replication - ✔✔ correct answer process of copying DNA prior to cell division
,Essentials of Pathophysiology Module 1,

Acute - ✔✔ correct answer New, usually of rapid onset and of concern
Chronic - ✔✔ correct answer Long-standing, constant
-itis - ✔✔ correct answer inflammation
Hypo- - ✔✔ correct answer Deficient
Hyper- - ✔✔ correct answer excessive
Selective Permeability - ✔✔ correct answer ability of the cell wall to allow some substances through the
membrane and block others
Diffusion - ✔✔ correct answer movement of solutes towards lower solute concentrations
Facilitated Diffusion - ✔✔ correct answer movement of solutes towards higher concentrations using a
carrier molecule
Osmosis - ✔✔ correct answer passive movement of water/solvent across membrane towards higher
concentrations (osmotic pressure)

Endocytosis - ✔✔ correct answer bringing substance into cell
Phagocytosis - ✔✔ correct answer to engulf
Pinocytosis - ✔✔ correct answer to ingest
Energy ATP - ✔✔ correct answer comes from breaking down glucose, triglycerides, or protein (when
nothing else is available)
Cell proliferation - ✔✔ correct answer occurs when cells divide and reproduce
Ribosomes - ✔✔ correct answer site of protein synthesis
Endoplasmic Reticulum - ✔✔ correct answer A cell structure that forms a maze of passageways in which
proteins and other materials are carried from one part of the cell to another.
Mitochondria - ✔✔ correct answer have own DNA & ribosomes, produce power using aerobic
metabolism to create ATP
Epithelial tissue - ✔✔ correct answer acts as a barrier (simple or stratified)
Atrophy - ✔✔ correct answer lowers functionality, decreases workload diminishes organelle size and

contractability
Hyperplasia - ✔✔ correct answer increases functionality, increasing workload increases tissue size due to
cell proliferation
