How many ways do cells or tissues respond to injury or stress?
Understand the Problem
The question is asking about the various mechanisms through which cells or tissues can react to damage or stress. This involves exploring biological responses such as inflammation, repair processes, regeneration, or apoptosis.
Answer
Four main patterns: ischaemic/anoxic, oxidative, heat shock, and acute phase responses.
Cells and tissues respond to injury or stress in four main patterns: ischaemic/anoxic, oxidative, heat shock, and acute phase responses.
Answer for screen readers
Cells and tissues respond to injury or stress in four main patterns: ischaemic/anoxic, oxidative, heat shock, and acute phase responses.
More Information
These responses are mechanisms that cells and tissues activate to survive, repair, or adapt to stress and injury. Each pattern triggers specific pathways that influence cell survival or death.
