This is the condition of being in equilibrium or balance
What is homeostasis
True or False-plasma membranes are not permeable
False
This is an increase in cell number
What is hyperplasia?
The process in which the membrane-enclosed secretory vesicles fuse with the plasma membrane and release their contents into the extracellular fluid

What is apoptosis?
This type of cell junction results in preventing leakage
What is tight junction?
Reticular fibers are plentiful in this reticular connective tissue, which forms the supporting framework of many soft organs, such as the spleen and lymph nodes.
What is stroma?
Signs and symptoms are indicative what in a health care setting.
What is disease?
This is the difference in concentration of ions between one side of the plasma membrane and the other side

This type of necrosis is found in TB. Described as cheesy and yellow white.
What is caseous necrosis?
Secretory products are released by this type of gland into ducts that empty onto surface of a covering and lining epithelium, such as skin surface or lumen of lumen of hollow organ.
What is exocrine glands?
DNA can be found in two parts of the cells. What two parts?
This classification of some organs is given because they are not surrounded by the peritoneum; rather, they are posterior to it.
What is retroperitoneal?
Does secondary active transport require energy? How does the system get energy?
This molecule is responsible for stabilization of the plasma membrane while reducing fluidity
What is cholesterol?
Two differences between CT and epithelium
What is CT has few cells and lots of ECM. Epithelium also has poor vascularization.
