\.Which cell component is capable of cellular autodigestion when it is
released during cell injury?
Ribosomes
Golgi complex
Smooth endoplastic reticulum
Lysosomes - ANSWERS-Lysosomes
\.Which mode of chemical signaling uses blood to transport
communication to cells some distance away?
Paracrine
Autocrine
Neurotransmitter

\.The loss of the adenosine triphosphate (ATP) during ischemia causes
cells to:
, Swell because of the influx of sodium chloride (NaCl)
Swell because of the influx of nitric oxide (NO) - ANSWERS-Swell
because of the influx of sodium chloride (NaCl)
\.During cell injury caused by hypoxia, an increase in the osmotic
pressure occurs within the cell because:
Plasma proteins enter the cell
The adenosine triphoshatase (ATPase_-driven pump is stronger during
hyppoxia
Sodium chloride enters the cell
An influx of glucose occurs through the injured cell membranes -
ANSWERS-Sodium chloride enters the cell
