Disturbed water metabolism
B
Disturbed fat metabolism
C
Disturbed mycopolysaccharides
D

Explanation: 

Detailed explanation-1: -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.

Detailed explanation-2: -Types of cell injury: Reversible injury. Irreversible injury Irreversible Injury Ischemic Cell Damage (leads to cell death)

Detailed explanation-3: -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.
