NUR 3032 Pathophysiology Exam 1 Study Guide Latest updated CHAPTER 5: Cellular Adaptation: • Cells adapt to changes in the internal environment when confronted with stress that endanger normal structure and function. These cells adapt to increase work demands by changing in: 1. Size (Atrophy and Hypertrophy) 2. Number (Hyperplasia) 3. Form (Metaplasia) • These mechanisms depend largely on signals transmitted by chemical messengers that exert their affects by altering gene fu...
