NSG 5003 Midterm Review Form of necrosis a/w TB? Most common cause of cellular injury? Acid- pH <7.35 Base- pH >7.45 Oxidative phosphorylation occurs in the mitochondria. Oxidative phosphorylation is the mechanism by which energy produced from carbs fats, and proteins is transferred to ATP. Hypotonic solution causes cellular swelling- D5W (dextrose in water), D5 1/2NS (5% dextrose and 0.45%NS), 1/2NS (0.45%NS), D5 1/4NS( 5% dextrose and 0.2%NS), 1/4NS (0.2%NS) Hypertonic solution cau...
