Cell Adaptation, Injury, Death Flashcards
1
Q
Cell Membrane
A
- Protects
- Transports
- Boundary system for the cell
2
Q
Nucleus
A
- Control center of the cell; “The brain”
- Contains the DNA of the cell
- Nucleolus is responsible for making ribosomes
3
Q
Rough & Smooth ER
A
- Where most protein synthesis occurs
- Synthesize lipids
- Smooth ER helps in detoxification of harmful substances
4
Q
Ribosomes
A
Make proteins that the cell & body needs
5
Q
Golgi Complex
A
Sorts & correctly ships the proteins produced in the ER
6
Q
Mitochondria
A
Packages the energy of food into ATP molecules
7
Q
Vesicles
A
Stores & transports products produced by the cell
8
Q
Lysosomes
A
- Break down large molecules into smaller pieces that the cell can use
- Digestive system of the cell.
9
Q
Cytoplasm
A
Surrounds & protects the cell.
A. Adult=50%-65% water
B. Child=75% water
C. Human brain=75% water
10
Q
Types of Tissues
A
- Epithelium/Endothelium
- Connective Tissue(CT)
- Muscle tissue
- Nervous tissue
- Blood & lymphoid tissue
11
Q
All forms of disease begin with?
A
Alterations to the cell
12
Q
Altered cellular & tissue biology results from?
A
- Adaptation
- Injury
- Neoplasia
- Aging
- Death
13
Q
The Cell Adapts by?
A
- Atrophy
- Hypertrophy
- Hyperplasia
- Metaplasia
- Dysplasia
14
Q
Atrophy
A
1. Reduction in cell size by: A. Disuse B. Nutritional deprivation C. 02 Deprivation(Ischemia) D. Decreased hormonal stimulation E. Aging F. Denervation pressure
15
Q
Hypertrophy
A
- Enlargement of cell to an increased workload:
A. Mechanical signals”stretch” muscles causing enlargement
B. Trophic signals send hormones causing enlargement(Uterine growth)
