Aplasia
Dysplasia
abnormal growth or development of an organ or a tissue or a cell

Dysplasia
Hyperplasia
an abnormal increase in the number of normal cells in normal arrangement in an organ or a tissue

Hyperplasia
Hypoplasia
Incomplete or less than normal development of a tissue, organ, or cell

Hypoplasia
Neoplasia
any abnormal new growth of tissue in which multiplication of cells is uncontrolled, more rapid than normal, and progressive. Neoplasms usually form a distinct mass of tissue called a tumor
