Carbon monoxide injures cells by
reducing oxygen level on hemoglobin.
Bacteria cause injury to cells by (Select all that apply.) a. producing exotoxins. b. producing endotoxins. c. producing destructive enzymes. d. reproducing inside of host cells altering cellular function. e. evoking an immune reaction.
A, B, C, E
Infectious injury often results from (Select all that apply.) a. exotoxins. b. endotoxins. c. self-destruction of cells. d. anti-inflammatory reactions. e. enzymes from white blood cells.
A, B, C, E
Viruses differ from most bacteria in that they (Select all that apply.) a. enter the host cell. b. directly produce free radicals. c. use the host's metabolic processes to survive and replicate. d. do not induce an immune response. e. do not produce toxins.
A,C,E
Extreme cold injures cells by all the following except a. ischemic injury from vasoconstriction. b. peripheral nerve damage from rebound vasodilation. c. decreased blood viscosity. d. crystallization of cellular components.
c. decreased blood viscosity (Hypothermia causes increased blood viscosity, )
Apoptosis is a process that results in cellular
death.
Coagulative necrosis is caused by
interrupted blood supply
All these cellular responses are potentially reversible except: necrosis. metaplasia. atrophy. hyperplasia.
