Pathophysiology - (answers)the study of changes in the body's physiology that
result from disorder or disease

Clinical Manifestations - (answers)the presence or absence of disease often
marked by signs and symptoms
Diagnosis - (answers)identifying the type of illness or problem by examination of
the symptoms
Etiology - (answers)the cause of a disease or condition
Idiopathic - (answers)unknown cause of a disease
Iatrogenic - (answers)disease caused by a treatment or procedure error
Epidemiology - (answers)study of the distribution and determinants of health-
related or events in a population
, 2
Incidence - (answers)rate of occurrence
Ex: number of new cases of a disease in a population over a specific period of
time (1 in 3 may catch a disease)
Prevalence - (answers)the number of people in a population who have the disease
or condition over a specific time period

movement
2. Conductivity - electric response to stimuli
3. Metabolic Absorption - taking and using nutrients
4. Secretion - mucus
5. Excretion - getting rid of waste
