Disease is initiated at the ____ level
cellluar
cell is bound by a _____membrane
plasma
cell is composed of ____, ____, and a _____
cytoplasm, organelles, and a nucleus
Cell nucleus contains genetic material aka
DNA (Deoxyribonucleic acid)
____ _____ acts as a barrier from cell’s external environment
plasma membrane
major component of the plasma membrane is ____ _____ and is semipermiable
phospholipid bilayer
When disease alters the plasma membrane’s configuration, excess fluid can enter the cell’s internal environment causing ____ ____
cellular edema.
When disease alters the plasma membrane’s configuration, intracellular fluid can leak out of the cell causing ____ ____
cellular dehydration
Carbohydrates known as ______ attached to the outer surface of the plasma membrane and serve as surface markers aka ______
glycoproteins; antigens
glycoproteins identify between ___ and non____
self and non self
For optimal cell function, it is necessary for ____ ions to be higher concentration INSIDE the cell
K+ (Potassium) - relax cells, chill
For optimal cell function, it is inecesary for ____ ions to be higher concentration OUTSIDE the cell
Sodium Na+
K+ leak out; Na retained
the Na+ K+ pump uses ____ for energcy to move Na and K+ in opposite directions
ATP; this is called active transport
For every #__ Na out, #__ K+ pumped in
3;2
T: When calcium remains in the heart due to pharmacological intervention the heart’s contraction force is greater
True
_____ function to convert organcx nutrients into cell energy in the form of ATP
mitochondria
Mitochondria use oxygen to convert organix nutrients into ATP. This is called aerobic. What happens if there is cellular hypoxia?
anaerobic metabolism, aka glycolysis, glucose is used to create energy.
Aerobic metabolism yields 34 ATP. How many ATP and what byproduct happen in anaerobic metabolism?
2 ATP; pyruvic acid –> converts to lactic acid
Mitochondria come from the mother’s side and have their own distinctive ___
DNA
Mitochondria are subject to mutation by oxygen-derived ___ _____
free radicals
_____ contain digestive enzymes such as protease, lipase and lysozyme
lysosomes
Heterolysis is when….
lysosomes digest/destroy what macrophages eat
Proteasomes degrade…
polypeptide changed (protease…protein)
Peroxisomes break down ….
fatty acids and free radicals (ox = fat ox…ox, oxygen, free radicals)
