Questions & Step-by-Step Solutions

What is the primary mechanism of cell injury in ischemia?
  • Step 1: Understand what ischemia means. Ischemia is when there is not enough blood flow to a part of the body.
  • Step 2: Recognize that blood flow is important because it delivers oxygen and nutrients to cells.
  • Step 3: Know that when blood flow is reduced, cells do not get enough oxygen.
  • Step 4: Realize that oxygen is needed to make ATP, which is the energy currency of the cell.
  • Step 5: Understand that without enough ATP, cells cannot perform their normal functions.
  • Step 6: Recognize that if the lack of ATP continues, it can lead to cell injury and eventually cell death.
