Explanation:
Detailed explanation-1: -REVERSIBLE CELL INJURY (RCI): If ischemia or hypoxia is for short period of time, the cell can be reverting back to its normal condition which is known as RCI. In coronary arteries, myocardial contractility is reversed if circulation is quickly restored.
Detailed explanation-2: -Two patterns of reversible cell injury can be recognized under the light microscope: cellular swelling and cellular fatty change. Cellular swelling appears whenever cells are incapable of maintaining ionic and fluid homeostasis and is the result of loss of function of plasma membrane energy-dependent ion pumps.
