OBJECTIVES
• Hypertrophy
• Increase in cell size
• Hyperplasia
• Increase in cell number
• Accretion
• A growth or enlargement by a gradual build up
• Whole body growth does not occur independently
• Individual cellular changes allow tissues and organs to assume different
roles.
TRUE GROWTH VS. FATTENING
• The egg cell remains as a primary ovum until the time for its release from the ovary
arrives. The egg then undergoes a cell division. The nucleus splits so that half of its
chromosomes go to one cell and half to another. One of these two new cells is usually
larger than the other and is known as the secondary ovum; the smaller cell is known as
a polar body. The secondary ovum grows in the ovary until it reaches maturation; it
then breaks loose and is carried into the fallopian tubes. Once in the fallopian tubes,
the secondary egg cell is suitable for fertilization by the male sperm cells.

ADIPOSE TISSUE GROWTH
• The main cells that compose adipose tissue are called adipocytes. Besides
adipocytes, several other cell types are present; preadipocytes, fibroblasts,
capillary endothelial cells, macrophages and stem cells. These non-adipocyte
cells collectively form the stromal vascular fraction, and their main function is to
support and protect the adipose tissue.
• Adipocytes (adipose cells, fat cells), are the building blocks of adipose tissue.
There are three types of adipocytes that constitute two different types of
adipose tissue;
