triphosphate (ATP) during ischemia causes cells to
Cardiovascular diseases such as hypertension and ischemic heart disease - answer ✔✔-Free
radicals play a major role in the initiation and progression of which diseases
Giving up an electron, which causes injury to the chemical bonds of the cell membrane - answer
✔✔-Free Radicals cause cell damage by:
Influx of calcium ions halts ATP production. - answer ✔✔-What is a consequence of plasma
membrane damage to the mitochondria?

,Programmed cell death of scattered, single cells - answer ✔✔-Which statement is a description
of the characteristics of apoptosis?
Sodium chloride enters the cell - answer ✔✔-During cell injury caused by hypoxia, an increase
in the osmotic pressure occurs within the cell because
Hemoconcentration occurs because of the loss of salt and water. - answer ✔✔-What physiologic
change occurs during heat exhaustion?
ATP is insufficient to maintain the pump that keeps sodium out of the cell. - answer ✔✔-In
hypoxic injury, sodium enters the cell and causes swelling because
Depletion of ATP normally pumps calcium from the cell. - answer ✔✔-What is the cause of free

levels. - answer ✔✔-During cell injury caused by hypoxia, sodium and water move into the cell
because
