STRESS
100
Cells can adapt by either increasing or decreasing in these three things:

Size, number, or structure

100

Two words describing a cell lacking oxygen in INCREASING severity

Hypoxia and Anoxia

100
A tear in your skin

Laceration

100

The three phases of wound healing

Inflammatory

Proliferative

Maturation and remodeling

100

The stress response can be triggered by an actual stressor present in body OR this

A stressor perceived by the mind

200

Four ways a cell might atrophy, two starting with P, two starting with D

Physiologic

Pathologic

Disuse

Decreased protein synthesis, increased protein catabolism, or both

200
Cellular death resulting from reduced blood supply

Ischemia

200

The removal of superficial layers of skin

Abrasion

200

During the inflammatory phase, the wound is rinsed by this

Blood

200

The three systems involved in stress RESPONSE (hint, not including circulatory)

Autonomic nervous system (sympathetic branch)

Endocrine system (pituitary and adrenal glands)

Immune system


300

An increased rate of cellular division can result in:

Hyperplasia

300

A cell is hurt by atoms having unpaired electrons

Free radical

300

The collection of blood in soft tissues

Hematoma


300
After rinsing, the wound is filled with these two things

Blood-collagen and fibrin constituents

300

The aroused SNS causes these to be released by the adrenal gland

Catecholamines

400

The description and cause of hypertrophy

Increase in size of cells

Caused by increased work demand or hormones

400

Described as "cellular dissolution"

Necrosis

400

A fancy word for a bruise, or ruptured blood vessels without break in skin

Contousion

400

The proliferative phase consists of the resorption of blood-collagen and then this

Reepithelialization

400

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)

500

Another word for atypical hyperplasia, described as abnormal changes in size, shape, and organization of mature cells

Dysplasia

500

The intentional self-destruction of a cell

Apoptosis


500

A flap of lacerated skin

Avulsion

500

The final stage of wound healing consists of the growth of this

New epithelial cells

500

Two main examples of catecholamines used to prepare the body for fight or flight are

Epinephrine and norepinephrine
