Size, number, or structure
Two words describing a cell lacking oxygen in INCREASING severity
Hypoxia and Anoxia
Laceration
The three phases of wound healing
Inflammatory
Proliferative
Maturation and remodeling
The stress response can be triggered by an actual stressor present in body OR this
A stressor perceived by the mind
Four ways a cell might atrophy, two starting with P, two starting with D
Pathologic
Disuse
Decreased protein synthesis, increased protein catabolism, or both
Ischemia
The removal of superficial layers of skin
Abrasion
During the inflammatory phase, the wound is rinsed by this
Blood
The three systems involved in stress RESPONSE (hint, not including circulatory)
Autonomic nervous system (sympathetic branch)
Endocrine system (pituitary and adrenal glands)Immune system
An increased rate of cellular division can result in:
Hyperplasia
A cell is hurt by atoms having unpaired electrons
Free radical
The collection of blood in soft tissues
Hematoma
Blood-collagen and fibrin constituents
The aroused SNS causes these to be released by the adrenal gland
Catecholamines
The description and cause of hypertrophy
Increase in size of cells
Caused by increased work demand or hormones
Described as "cellular dissolution"
Necrosis
A fancy word for a bruise, or ruptured blood vessels without break in skin
Contousion
The proliferative phase consists of the resorption of blood-collagen and then this
Reepithelialization
This hormone stimulates the adrenal gland or adrenal cortex to release "the stress hormone" (bonus points for giving the name of the stress hormone)
Adrenocorticotrpic hormone (ACTH)
(bonus: cortisol)
Another word for atypical hyperplasia, described as abnormal changes in size, shape, and organization of mature cells
Dysplasia
The intentional self-destruction of a cell
Apoptosis
A flap of lacerated skin
Avulsion
The final stage of wound healing consists of the growth of this
New epithelial cells
Two main examples of catecholamines used to prepare the body for fight or flight are
Epinephrine and norepinephrine
