Introduction to Pathophysiology
1. Differentiate between an acute disease and a chronic disease.
2. What is the difference between an epidemic and a pandemic?
3. Cells adapt to environmental changes by changing their size, number,
and type. For each of the following scenarios, identify the appropriate
adaptive cellular change or changes that occur, using the following
terms:
atrophy metaplasia
hypertrophy dysplasia
hyperplasia neoplasia
i. a decrease in size of a leg after being in a cast for 6 weeks:
ii. breast enlargement at puberty:
iii. a dramatic increase in muscle mass in an Olympic weight lifter:
iv. a very aggressively growing cancer mass:
v. a benign tumor growing along the spine:
vi.the changes that occur in the lower extremities of someone paralyzed
below the waist:
vii. a pressure area under a poorly fitting denture:
viii. the changes that often occur over years in the respiratory tract of a
smoker:
ix. the changes responsible for an abnormal Pap smear:
x. the response of the skeletal system to excessive growth hormone:
xi. the thyroid gland's response to hypersecretion of thyroid-stimulating
hormone:
xii. the liver's response to prolonged drug intoxication (e.g., chronic
alcohol abuse):
xiii. the changes that occur in the gallbladder with the development of
gallstones:
xiv. the thyroid gland's response to decreased iodine intake:
