Which type of necrosis is characteristic of ischemic infarction of any organ except the brain?

Which process results in lactic acid buildup and low pH, denaturing proteins and precipitating DNA?

What is the morphologic hallmark of cell death?

Which type of necrosis is characteristic of brain infarction?

Match the following cellular injury hallmarks with their descriptions:

Match the following types of necrosis with their characteristics:

Match the following processes with their effects on cellular functions:

Match the following growth adaptations with their descriptions:

Match the following types of cell death with their characteristics:

Low ATP disrupts key cellular functions including Na+ -K+ pump, resulting in sodium and water buildup in the cell

Eventually, the damage becomes irreversible. The hallmark of irreversible injury is membrane damage. 1. Plasma membrane damage results in i. Cytosolic enzymes leaking into the serum (e.g., cardiac troponin) ii. Additional calcium entering into the cell

The end result of irreversible injury is

The two mechanisms of cell death are

The morphologic hallmark of cell death is ______, which occurs via nuclear condensation (pyknosis), fragmentation (karyorrhexis), and dissolution (karyolysis)
