Solutions | A+ Verified
• Pathophysiology. CORRECT ANSWER: The study of how normal
physiologic processes are affected by disease.
• genetic disease. CORRECT ANSWER: Due to abnormalities in
genetic makeup
• Developmental Disease. CORRECT ANSWER: Diseases occurring
during embryonic of fetal development
• Inflammatory Disease. CORRECT ANSWER: Trigger the inflamm
• Degenerative Disease. CORRECT ANSWER: Causes part of the body
to degenerate EX: Arthritis
• Metabolic Disease. CORRECT ANSWER: affects the metabolism EX:
Diabetes Mellitus
• Neoplastic Disease. CORRECT ANSWER: Due to uncontrollable
cellular growth; leads to benign and malignant TUMOR growth
• Etiology. CORRECT ANSWER: cause of disease
,• idiopathic. CORRECT ANSWER: unknown cause
• iatrogenic. CORRECT ANSWER: produced by treatment ; Unintended
• Differentiation. CORRECT ANSWER: process in which cells become
specialized in structure and function
• Nucleus. CORRECT ANSWER: Control center of the cell
• selectively permeable. CORRECT ANSWER: some substances can
pass across them and others cannot
• Homeostasis. CORRECT ANSWER: Call maintains state of internal
balance
• ______ , ________ , and ________ have free passage in and out of the
cell. CORRECT ANSWER: Enzymes, Glucose, and electrolytes
• Enzymes. CORRECT ANSWER: Proteins that enable chemical
reactions
• Glucose. CORRECT ANSWER: Sugar molecule that provides energy
, • Electrolytes. CORRECT ANSWER: charged conductors when
dissolved in water
• Diffusion. CORRECT ANSWER: Movement of solutes dissolved in a
solvent from an area of higher concentration to an area of lower
concentration.
• facilitated diffusion. CORRECT ANSWER: Substances move from an
area of higher concentration to an area of lower concentration with the
assistance of a carrier molecule. DOES NOT REQUIRE ENERGY
• Osmosis. CORRECT ANSWER: passive movement of water/solvent
across the cellular membrane from an area of low solute concentration to
an area of high solute concentration.
• proliferation. CORRECT ANSWER: Regulated process by which cells
divide and reproduce.
• Mitosis. CORRECT ANSWER: The division of 1 cell results in 2
genetically identical and equal daughter cells EX: Diploid Cells
• Meiosis. CORRECT ANSWER: Form of cell division that occurs only
in mature sperm and ova.
• Adaptation. CORRECT ANSWER: Cell death is prevented through
this process
