Case Study Of Patient | Assignment_1
PATIENTS’ CASE STUDY ASSESEMET11.1A cell is mainly consists of three parts and they are a cell membrane, cytoplasm and anucleus. In a cell, there are several cell organelles like ribosome, mitochondria, andlysosomes.1.2The main functions of a cell are to furnish the structure of body, supply nutrients,forming different types of molecules, metabolizing nutrition’s and replicating itself. Cellsalso permits specific nutrients and molecules according to their size.1.3The oxidation of food molecules like glucose into water and carbon dioxide isreferred to as cellular respiration. The whole process occurs in mitochondria in twosteps.ATP holds the released energy in this process.1.4The most important compounds for a cell to survive are oxygen and glucose forrespiration. The compound is water because without water they are unable to execute theessential reactions.2.Cellular adaptation is the changes made by the cell itself in reply to unfavourableenvironmental changes. It can be either physiological or pathological.3.The four major types of cellular adaptation are atrophy, hypertrophy, hyperplasia, anddysplasia. Atrophy refers to the reduction in cell size. However, the whole organ size will be

Hypertrophy refers to theincrement of the cell size. The organ can be hypertrophied with the hypertrophy of the cell.Hypertrophy may be caused by the mechanical signals or by the trophic signals, the kidneyand the heart have the higher chances of hypertrophy. Hyperplasia is the condition wherenumber of cells is increased due to cell mitosis. Hyperplasia is of two types- compensatoryand hormonal. Compensatory hyperplasia occurs mainly in epithelial cells of bone marrowcells,intenstines.Hormonal hypertrophy is mainly common in organs that is dependable onestrogen.For example in uterine cells hyperplasia is more common. Metaplasia refers to thereplacement of differentiated cells by an other type of cells. The changes occurred inbronchial cells in response to an irritant like smoke or smog is the common example ofmetaplasia. It is thought that this replacement of cells is reversible.4.4.1Simple diffusion is the process of moving solutes along a concentration gradientthrough a semipermeable membrane.It is completed by the hydrogen bonds between thesolutes and the water molecule. In human body, transportation of water is example of thesimple diffusion. Water molecules are transported to cell from high to low concentration.4.2Facilated diffusion is the process of active transport in which one molecule istransported with the help of another molecule along with their concentration gradient.Through facilitated diffusion, protein molecules can be transported along with carbohydratenucleosides.

In human body, dialysis is the example of osmosis.4.4 Hydrostatic pressure is the pressure exerted by the fluid outside or within thecapillary at resting condition. Due to the hydrostatic pressure, filtration occurs in the kidney.5.5.1The effect of diving in human body is mainly vasoconstriction caused by theincreased amount of oxygen in the body. This results in high blood pressure and lowering ofheart rate and cardiac output.The signs of diving in human body are chest pain, rashes in skin, joint pain in majorjoints like shoulder and elbows.5.2The primary effect of high altitude on human body is the hypobaric hypoxia that is thelower concentration of oxygen in the body.The primary sign of high altitude is acute mountain sickness ( AMS) which includessymptoms like headache,dizziness,vomiting (Bärtsch and Swenson 2013).5.3The main effect of temperature in human body is pyrexia and mental dysfunction dueto high temperature.

PATIENTS’ CASE STUDY ASSESEMET4The signs and symptoms of the temperature on human body is mainly heat rash,heatsyncope and heat stroke (Harlan et al. 2014).6.6.1The main pathophysiological changes due to carbon monoxide poisoning is formationof myoglobin that cause reduction in cardiac output and blood pressure. This may result inbrain ischemia.6.2Seven possible signs and symptoms of this condition can be dizziness,blurredvision,loss consciousness,nausea, weakness, shortness of breath, vomiting.7.7.1Surgical response is the stress that body experiences after a surgery. It results due torelease of several hormone and inflammatory response.7.2Penetrating trauma refers to the injury due to piercing of an object through skin andenters into the bodily tissue. This results in open wound in the body.7.3Blunt trauma is the non-penetrating trauma and in this case, skin wound is notnecessary.8.1
