- Metaplasia - correct answer Metaplasia is the reversible replacement of one mature cell type by another immature cell. The best example of metaplasia is replacement of normal columnar ciliated epithelial cells of the bronchial lining by stratified squamous epithelial cells. 
 
Causative factors of atrophy - correct answer aging, disuse, or reduced/absent blood supply, hormonal stimulation, or neural stimulation 
 
Causative factors of hypertrophy - correct answer commonly seen in left ventricle ...
