Extracellular fluid consists of what?
|
Plasma and interstitial fluid compose what?
|
|
The four basic components of a feedback mechanism?
|
Variable, sensor (receptor), control center, and effector are part of what?
|
|
when homeostasis cannot be maintained:
|
1)something prevents an organ from doing its job, 2) there is often a loss of negative feedback, 3) organs have reached phsiological limit
|
|
Timeline of events when homeostasis is disrupted:
|
homeostasis, cellular adaptation, cellular injury, cellular death (necrosis), somatic death
|
|
adaptation is a state that lies between what:
|
a normal healthy cell and the injured cell - what occurs between these two states
|
|
cellular adaptation occurs when:
|
cells are subjected to non-homeostatic conditions - what occurs
|
|
4 forms of adaptation:
|
atrophy,hypertrophy, hyperplasia, metaplasia
|
|
what happens when a non-homeostatic condition overwhelms adaptive process?
|
cellular injury occurs when?
|
|
what is metaplasia?
|
replacement of one cell type with another, often occurs in response to some continual irritation or chronic inflammation
|
|
results of cellular injury:
|
cell membrane disruptions, cellular accumulations or infiltrations, changes in organelle appearance, alterations in cellular metabolism, lysosomal rupture
|
|
common etiologies of cellular injury:
|
hypoxia, chemical injuries, infections, radiation, physical injury/trauma
|
|
types of necrosis:
|
coagulative necrosis, liquification necrosis, caseous necrosis, fat necrosis, gangrene, avascular necrosis
|
|
this occurs from hypoxia from severe ischemia or chemical injury. Areas of denatured proteins and solid. Areas dissolved by proteolytic enzymes and replaced by scar tissue
|
coagulative necrosis
|
|
caused by ischemic injury to neurons and glial cells. Can occur from bacterial infections that trigger localized collection of WBCs
|
liquefactive necrosis
|
|
associated with TB and combination of coagulative and liquefactive. resembles soft, clumped cheese
|
Caseous necrosis
|
|
occurs in adipose tissue and is due to release of lipases from dead cells. Pancreatic cell death. Produce soaps, chalky-cheesy nodules. Consist of dead fat cells, inflammatory cells and phagocytes filled with fat
|
fat necrosis
|
|
necrosis of many tissues in localized area
|
gangrene necrosis
|
|
disease resulting from temporary or permanent loss of blood supply to bones
|
avascular necrosis, also osteonecrosis, aseptic necrosis, ischemic bone necrosis
|
|
decrease in body temp after heart stops
|
algor mortis
|
|
maroon/purplish color that develops when heart stops. effect created when heavier RBC settle downward from serum due to gravity
|
livor mortis
|
|
hardening of muscles that begins shortly after death
|
rigor mortis
|
