CELLS AND TISSUES

1. The resident doctor examines three patients in an intensive care unit who are in critical condition. In one case, a stroke left him with brain damage, another had a heart attack and suffered serious heart muscle damage, and the third suffered severe liver damage as a result of a car accident that crushed his liver (a gland). All three patients have been stabilized and are expected to live, but only one will experience complete functional recovery as a result of regeneration. Which one, and why did you choose it?

2. Michael had a neurotic tendency of biting on the inner lining of his lip with his front teeth, which was a source of discomfort for him. As a result of years of constant irritation, the lip became thicker and thicker. Michael's dentist noted a significant thickening of his lower lip and advised him to have it tested to determine if the thickening was the result of a tumor. A biopsy indicated hyperplasia but no signs of neoplasia, according to the results. What exactly do these phrases mean? Is it possible that Michael had oral cancer?
