question 5 of 10
which change exemplifies physiologic hypertrophy?
muscle mass increase with exercise
lung size increase in emphysema
heart size increase in hypertension
cell size increase with hypoxia
Physiologic hypertrophy occurs in response to normal stimuli. Exercise is a normal, physiological stimulus that causes muscle cells to increase in size (hypertrophy) to meet the increased demand for work. Lung size increase in emphysema is due to pathological destruction of lung tissue. Heart size increase in hypertension is a pathological response to increased workload from high blood pressure. Cell size increase with hypoxia is a pathological adaptation to low - oxygen conditions.
