Disuse, denervation, loss of endocrine stimulation, inadequate<br>nutrition and ischemia and decreased blood flow can cause atrophy.<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li>Physiological atrophy- for example when you don\u2019t use your muscles they get smaller and this is<br>usually reversible.<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li>Pathological atrophy- has to do with diseases that cause cell size to shrink- for exampledenervation atrophy is a form of disuse atrophy in paralyzed limbs. This can be from polio<br>syndrome or people who have ALS (a neurodegenerative disease that affects nerves in the brain<br>and spinal cord- no muscle nourishment).<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li>Hypertrophy- an increase in cell size and with an increase in tissue mass.<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li>Physiological hypertrophy- the increase muscle mass relating to exercise.<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li>Pathological hypertrophy- disease conditions and maybe adaptive (thickening urinary bladder<br>from long-continued obstruction of urinary flow), and compensatory (one liver is removed the<br>other remaining one enlarges to compensate the loss).<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n\n\n\n<ol class=\"wp-block-list\">\n<li>Patho of CAD, The process of Atherosclerosis<br>CAD- atherosclerotic plaque deposits lining walls of coronary arteries and narrowing these<br>vessels, causing decreased oxygen supply to myocardium.<\/li>\n<\/ol>\n\n\n\n<ul class=\"wp-block-list\">\n<li>Injury to the lining of the artery occurs, resulting in increased permeability of endothelial<br>cells, allowing components of plasma to enter.<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li>An inflammatory response occurs bringing macrophages and platelets to the area of<br>injury<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li>Hemorrhage into plaque causes thrombi.

Cortisol levels drop because they are no<br>longer needed.<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li>The exhaustion phase- prolonged stressor overwhelms the body, wear and tear or systemic<br>damage appears.<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li>Eustress \u2013 means moderate or normal stress that is beneficial to the experiencer makes you push<br>harder to achieve, it may be seen as a challenge to overcome.<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li>Distress- negative stress, disruptive to health.<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n\n\n\n<ol class=\"wp-block-list\">\n<li>Metastasis and Cancer<br>Process of metastasis: the development of a SECONDARY tumor in a location distant from the PRIMARY<br>tumor;
