Understand the concept of programmed cell death, which is a regulated process by which cells undergo an orderly death to maintain tissue homeostasis and development.
Review the definitions of the options: Autophagy is a process of self-digestion by a cell to recycle components; Pyroptosis is a form of inflammatory programmed cell death; Necrosis is uncontrolled cell death due to injury.
Recognize that Apoptosis is the classical form of programmed cell death characterized by specific morphological and biochemical features such as cell shrinkage, DNA fragmentation, and membrane blebbing.
