4. Alterations Of Cell Growth, Specifically An Abnormal Proliferation Of Cells Is Called:
A. Hyperplasia
B. Dysplasia
C. Neoplasia
D. Aplasia

5. The Initial Response Of Body Tissues To Local Injury Is:
A. Infection
B. Ischemia
C. Edema
D. Inflammation

6. Heat And Redness Associated With Inflammation Is Produced By:
A. Hyperemia
B. Scar Tissue
C. Hyperplasia
D. Infarction
Answer: A
This Hyperemia Produces The Heat And Redness Associated With Inflammation.

7. In An Injury, The Destroyed Tissue Is Replaced With:
A. Granulomatous Inflammation
B. Granulation Tissue
C. Phagocytes
D. Pyogens
Answer: B
A Fibrous Scar Replaces The Area Of Destroyed Tissue With Granulation Tissue. Granulation Tissue
RefersTo A Combination Of Young, Developing Capillaries And Actively Proliferating Fibroblasts,
Which Produce Connective Tissue Fibers (Collagen) That Replace The Dead Tissue.

8. Of The Five Clinical Signs Of Acute Inflammation, The Medical Term For Swelling Is:
A. Edema
B. Tumor
C. Calor
, D. Dolor
Answer: B
The Five Clinical Signs Of Acute Inflammation Are Rubor (Redness), Calor (Heat), Tumor (Swelling),
Dolor(Pain), And Loss Of Function.

9. Some Bacterial Organisms That Produce These Substances That Cause Damage To The Tissue And
InciteThe Inflammatory Process Are Known As:
A. Toxoids
B. Pyogens
C. Toxins
D. Abscesses
Answer: C
Some Bacterial Organisms (Such As Staphylococci And Streptococci) Produce Toxins That Damage
TheTissues And Incite An Inflammatory Response.

10. Chronic Inflammation In A Localized Area, Which Often Has A Centralized Necrosis Is Called:
A. An Exudates
B. A Granuloma
C. An Abscess
D. Hyperplasia
Answer: B
A Granuloma Is A Localized Area Of Chronic Inflammation, Often With Central Necrosis.

,11. In Acute Inflammation, The Localized Heat And Redness Are A Result Of The:
A. Migration Of Circulating White Blood Cells
B. Increased Blood Flow And Vascular Permeability
C. Regeneration Of Normal Parenchymal Cells
D. Enzymatic Digestion Of Dead Cells
Answer: B
The Localized Heat And Redness Result From Increased Blood Flow In The Microcirculation At The
Site OfInjury.

12. In Pyogenic Infections, The Body Responds By Producing A Thick, Yellow Fluid Called:
A. Bacteria
B. Pus
C. Edema
D. A Scar
Answer: B
The Presence Of Pyogenic Bacteria Leads To The Production Of A Thick, Yellow Fluid Called Pus,
WhichContains Dead White Blood Cells, Inflammatory Exudates, And Bacteria.

13. All Pyogens Have The Ability To Enter The Blood Circulation Causing:
A. Bacteremia
B. Phagocytosis
C. Septicemia
D. Keloid Tissue
, Answer: A
All Pyogens, Wherever They Become Implanted, Have The Ability To Invade Blood Vessels To
ProduceBacteremia, With The Potential Involvement Of Other Organs And Tissues In The Body.

14. Connective Tissue Fibers Replacing Dead Tissue, Then Contracting In The Abdomen Are Known As:
A. Keloids
B. Suppurative Inflammation
C. Fibrous Adhesions
D. Hyperemia
Answer: C
Eventually The Strong Connective Tissue Contracts To Produce A Fibrous Scar. In The Abdomen,
SuchFibrous Adhesions Can Narrow Loops Of Intestine And Result In An Obstruction.

Generalized Edema Occurs With Pronounced Swelling Of Subcutaneous Tissues Throughout The
Body(Anasarca).
