|
CELLULAR ADAPTATION
|
|
|
THE PROCESS OF DECREASING CELL SIZE DUE TO A DECREASE IN CELL WORKLOAD
|
ATROPHY

WHEN AGENTS SUCH AS ETHANOL, LEAD, CARBON MONOXIDE, DRUGS,OR INSECTICIDE ENTER THE BODY, THIS TYPE OF INJURY OCCURS
|
CHEMICAL INJURY

CELLULAR DEATH OCCURS THROUGH ONE OF TWO PROCESSES KNOWN AS
|
APOPTOSIS AND NECROSIS
|
|
|
NATURAL ELIMINATION FO DAMAGED, DESTROYED, OR NONFUNCTIONING CELLS. ALLOWS TISSUE TO REPAIR ITSELF
|
APOPTOSIS
|
|
|
THE RESULT OF A PATHOLOGICAL PROCESS AND GENERALLY INVOLVES A GROUPING OR REGION OF CELLS. CELLS SWELL AND RUPTURE AND TAKE ON A DIFFERENT APPEARANCE
|
NECROSIS
|
|
|
A CELL SIZE THAT INCREASES DUE TO AN INCREASE IN WORKLOAD IS AN EXAMPLE OF THE PROCESS KNOWN AS
|
HYPERTROPHY
|
|
|
AN ABNORMAL CHANGE IN CELL SIZE OR SHAPE DUE TO SOME EXTERNAL STRESSOR
|
DYSPLASIA
