refer to the structural alterations in cells or tissues
that are either characteristic of a disease or diagnostic of an
etiologic process.

A

Molecular and Morphologic Changes.

24
Q

cheeselike

A

Caseous necrosis

25
Q

a normal phenomenon that serves to eliminate cells that are no longer needed, and to maintain a steady
number of various cell populations in tissues.

A

Apoptosis

26
Q

Accumulation of this substance in the liver may result from excessive entry or defective metabolism and export of lipids

29
Q

A type of hyperplasia that increases the functional capacity of a tissue when needed

A

Hormonal hyperplasia

30
Q

a deficiency of oxygen,
which causes cell injury by reducing aerobic oxidative respiration.

A

Hypoxia

31
Q

Chemical species that have a single unpaired electron in an outer orbit

A

Free Radicals

32
Q

refers to the sequence of
events in the response of cells or tissues to the etiologic agent,
from the initial stimulus to the ultimate expression of the disease.

A

Pathogenesis

33
Q

When bacterial infection is
superimposed there is more liquefactive necrosis
because of the actions of degradative enzymes in the bacteria and the attracted leukocytes (giving rise to
so-called ____

A

wet gangrene)

34
Q

Common example of Metaplasia from squamous to columnar type

A

Barret’s esophagus

35
Q

characterized by digestion of the dead cells, resulting in transformation of the tissue into a liquid viscous mass

A

Liquefactive necrosis

36
Q

result of growth factor–driven proliferation of mature cells and, in some cases, by increased output of new
cells from tissue stem cells.

A

Hyperplasia

37
Q

encountered most often in
foci of tuberculous infection

A

Caseous necrosis

Q

Cellular Adaptation: embryonic structures, such as the notochord and thyroglossal duct

A

Atrophy

39
Q

the necrotic area appears as a collection of fragmented or lysed cellsand amorphous granular debris enclosed within a distinctive infl mmatory border; this appearance is characteristic of a focus of inflammation known as a granuloma

A

Caseous necrosis

40
Q

result of a reprogramming of stem cells that are known to exist in normal tissues, or of undifferentiated mesenchymal cells present in connective tissue

A

Metaplasia

41
Q

refers to an increase in the size of cells, resulting in an increase in the size of the organ.

A

Hypertrophy

42
Q

cellular swelling and fatty change in light microscope

A

Reversible injury

43
Q

The necrotic material is frequently creamy yellow because of the presence of dead leukocytes and is called pus.
