Irreversible cell injury includes
A
Necrosis
B
Cloudy swelling
C
Hydropic swelling
D
Fatty change
Explanation: 

Detailed explanation-1: -Irreversible responses of cell injury refer to changes that lead to a new equilibrium with the environment. Types of irreversible responses include: interruption of membrane integrity; hydrolysis of phospholipids, proteins and nucleic acids; and necrosis, where organelles undergo a sequence of changes.

Detailed explanation-2: -Necrosis is the death of body tissue. It occurs when too little blood flows to the tissue. This can be from injury, radiation, or chemicals. Necrosis cannot be reversed.

Detailed explanation-3: -When cells are irreversibly injured and dying, specific nuclear changes may be visible, including pyknosis, karyorrhexis, and karyolysis. If large numbers of cells die, tissue necrosis may occur.

Detailed explanation-4: -Another form of cell death as a result of irreversible injury is known as liquefactive necrosis.

Detailed explanation-5: -Necrosis is the death of the cells in your body tissues. Necrosis can occur due to injuries, infections or diseases. Lack of blood flow to your tissues and extreme environmental conditions can also cause necrosis. While dead body tissue can be removed, it can’t be brought back to good health.
