Exam One - Key Content Points That Were Frequently Missed Cells and Genes 1. Effect of loss of ATP on the cell during ischemia – pages 51-52 - Ischemia (reduced blood flow) is the most common cause of hypoxia. Often caused by gradual narrowing of arteries and complete blockage by blood clots. - A reduction in ATP levels causes the plasma membranes sodium-potassium pump and sodiumcalcium exchange to fail, which leads to an intracellular accumulation of sodium and calcium, resulting in cel...
