synthese
Page | 3
B) influx of calcium ions halts adenosine triphosphate (ATP)
production
C) edema from an influx in sodium causes a reduction in
ATP production
D) potassium shifts out of the mitochondria, which destroys
the infrastructure ........ Ans: B- influx of calcium ions

of apoptosis?
A) apoptosis involves programmed cell death of scattered
singel cells
, B) apoptosis is characterized by the swelling of the nucleus
and the cytoplasm
C) apoptosis involves unpredictable patterns of cell death

During cell injury caused by hypoxia, sodium and water
move into the cell because:
A) during cell injury cause by hypoxia, sodium and water
move into the cell because:
B) the pump that transports sodium out of the cell cannot
function because of a decrease in adenosine triphosphate
(ATP) levels
C) the osmotic pressure is increased, which pulls additional
sodium across the cell membrane
D) oxygen is not available to bind with sodium to maintain it
outside of the cell ........ Ans: C- the osmotic pressure is
increased, which pulls additional sodium across the cell
membrane
