    Altered Cellular and Tissue Biology

  • 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 ...

    Test 1 Chap 2 (7th Ed.) Altered Cellular and Tissue Biology

  • What is Pathophysiology? - correct answer The systematic study of the functional changes in cells, tissues, and organs altered by disease and or injury. Atrophy - correct answer against growing so cells decreasing in size hypertrophy - correct answer increase in cellular size dysplasia - correct answer atypical hyperplasia, an abnormal change in the size, shape, and organization of mature tissue cells deranged cellular growth (normal cells but in the wrong place) (often occurs due t...
