Atrophy Correct Answer-E. Cells decrease in size P. Still functional; imbalance between protein synthesis and degradation. Essentially there is an increase in the catabolism of intracellular organelles, reducing structural components of cell Physiologic: thymus gland in early childhood Pathological: disuse (muscle atrophy d/ decrease workload, pressure, use, blood supply, nutrition, hormonal stimulation, or nervous stimulation) Hyperplasia Correct Answer-E: cells increase in number, mitosi...

Differences b/w dysplasia, hyperplasia, physiological (6 q) a.
