A disease process caused by physicians or their treatment is this type of process. a. Idiopathic b. Iatrogenic c. Neoplasia d.

Alterations of cell growth, specifically an abnormal proliferation of cells is called: a. Hyperplasia b. Dysplasia c. Neoplasia d. Aplasia ANSWER: C Alterations in cell growth lead to the development of neoplasms (tumors). REF: p. 7 5. The initial response of body tissues to local injury is: a. Infection b. Ischemia c. Edema d. Inflammation ANSWER: D Inflammation is the initial response of body tissues to local injury. REF: p. 3 6. Heat and redness associated with inflammation is produced by: a. Hyperemia b. Scar tissue c. Hyperplasia d. Infarction ANSWER: A This hyperemia produces the heat and redness associated with inflammation. REF: p. 3 7. In an injury, the destroyed tissue is replaced with: a. Granulomatous inflammation b. Granulation tissue c. Phagocytes d. Pyogens ANSWER: B A fibrous scar replaces the area of destroyed tissue with granulation tissue.

Abscesses ANSWER: C Some bacterial organisms (such as staphylococci and streptococci) produce toxins that damage the tissues and incite an inflammatory response. REF: p. 4 10. Chronic inflammation in a localized area, which often has a centralized necrosis is called: a. An exudates b. A granuloma c. An abscess d.
