False It is pathologic. {Ans: True/False: Endometrial hyperplasia is a normal physiologic occurrence.}Chromatin, nucleolus, and nuclear envelope {Ans: Name 3 structures within the nucleus.}Sodium-potassium (Na+/K+)-ATPase pump {Ans: What is the most studied active transport system in the human body?}Cilia can be found on many epithelial linings, including the nasal sinuses and bronchi in the upper respiratory system. In the human body, only spermatozoa contain flagella. {Ans: Give examples of where cilia and flagella are found in the human body.}Necrosis refers to cell death in an organ or tissues that is still part of a living person coagulative - results from cutoff of blood supply liquefactive - cell side but catalytic enzymes left gangrenous - significant tissue necrosis {Ans: Know the different types of necrosis.}The most studied active transport system is the sodium-potassium (Na+/K+)-ATPase pump. The pump moves sodium from inside the cell to the extracellular region and returns potassium to the inside of the cell. If this process didn't occur, sodium would remain in the cell and water would follow, causing the cell to swell. {Ans: What is the most important active transport system and why is it important?}
