    Incorrect

    • What occurs during cellular atrophy?

      Your Answer: The cell disappears

      Correct Answer: Cell size decreases

      Explanation:

      Atrophy is the decrease in the size of cells, tissues, or organs. There are several causes including inadequate nutrition, poor circulation, loss of hormonal support or nerve supply, disuse, lack of exercise, or disease. An increase in cell size is termed hypertrophy which is distinguished from hyperplasia, in which the cells remain approximately the same size but increase in number.
