Answer 1

atrophy

Question 2

what are common causes of cellular injury?

Answer 2

inflammation, nutritional deficiency or excess, hypoxia, trauma, and genetic mutations

Question 3

what is hypoxia?

Answer 3

low osygen delivery to tissue

Question 4

what is ischemia?

Answer 4

restriction in blood supply to tissues, causing a shortage of oxygen and glucose needed for cellular metabolism

Question 5

who is the final electron acceptor in the electron transport chain of oxidative phosphorylation?

Answer 5

oxygen

Question 6

what are some causes of hypoxia?

Answer 6

ischemia, hypoxemia, and decreased O2 carrying capacity of blood

Question 7

ischemia arises with:

Answer 7

decreased arterial perfusion, decreased venous drainage, shock - generalized hypotension resulting in poor tissue perfusion

Question 8

what is hypoxemia?

Answer 8

low partial pressure of oxygen in the blood (PaO2 < 90%)

Question 9

hypoxemia arises with:

Answer 9

high altitude, hypoventilation, diffusion defect, V/Q mismatch
