Hypertrophy Feedback: In response to the increased workload of hypertension, myocardial cells will hypertrophy in order to pump harder. The muscle wall becomes thicker in response to the increased workload. - correct answer A patient has an increased cardiac workload related to high blood pressure (hypertension).
