Infarction...(choose all that apply)
a. involves cell death
b. is caused by ischemia
c. results in necrosis
d. would be caused by reversible cell injury
Solution
Infarction occurs in tissues due to reduced blood supply to them leading to cell death (necrosis).
a). Yes, infarction involves cell death.
b). Yes, Ischemia, i.e., slowing of blood supply to a tissue is one of the causes of the infarction.
c). Yes, Infarction is death of tissue also called necrosis due to reduced blood supply
d). NO, infarction is not caused by reversibel cell injury.
