changes?
Define atrophy. Cells revert to a smaller size due to reduced
metabolic demand.
What causes atrophy? Aging, disuse, inadequate nutrition, ischemia.
Define hypertrophy. An increase in individual cell size due to increased
workload or use.
What is physiological hypertrophy? Cells increase in size with adequate supporting
tissues, e.g., cardiac cells with exercise.
What is pathological hypertrophy? Increase in cell size without adequate support
structures, e.g., heart tissue enlargement due to
hypertension.
What are the characteristics of benign Cells resemble normal cells, are well-differentiated,
neoplasms? do not metastasize, and have well-defined borders.
What are the characteristics of Cells appear different from healthy cells, have an
malignant neoplasms? increased likelihood of metastasis, and poorly
defined borders.
What is acute stress? A response to intermittent stimuli that ends after the
threat is avoided.
What are some symptoms of acute Increased heart rate, bronchodilation, increased
stress? focus, faster reaction time.
What is chronic stress? Prolonged activation of stress response to a
perceived threat that does not abate rapidly.
