Introduction to disease

Question 1

Disability-Adjusted Life Year (DALY) rates:

Answer 1

Limitation due to disease that lower your quality life. One DALY= loss of 1 year of full health

Question 2

Epithelial Tissue:

Answer 2

Protective and secretory, involve in absorption

Question 3

Connective tissues:

Answer 3

Structural and contractile.

Question 4

Type of Cellular Adaptation:

Answer 4

• Atrophy
• Hypertrophy
• Hyperplasia
• Metaplasia
• Dysplasia

Question 5

Cause of Atrophy:

Answer 5

• Decreased workload
• Inadequate blood supply
• Inadequate hormonal stimulation
• Inadequate nutrient supply

Question 6

Heterophagy:

Answer 6

the cell is taking in something external and breaking it down to be smaller

Question 7

Autophagy:

Answer 7

the cell breaks itself, digesting part of itself to become smaller. (way for the cell to stay alive during period of deprivation)

Question 8

Type of Hypertrophy:

Answer 8

• Physiological Hypertrophy
• Pathological Hypertrophy
• Enzyme induction (ex. hepatocyte in the liver)

Question 9

Hyperplasia is:

Answer 9

increase of number of cell.

Question 10

Metaplasia is:

Answer 10

Exchanging one cell type for another, or adding another cell type on top of what is already present.

Question 11

Which stage of cellular adaptation is the normal cell is still functional?

Answer 11

Atrophy

Question 12

Dysplasia is:

Answer 12

abnormal cell (not the same size or shape, nuclei diff size and divide more quickly)

Question 13

Anaplasia:

Answer 13

Cancer
