Necrosis is another form of cellular
suicide, much
like Apoptosis, only in Necrosis, the cell does not totally disappear.
The mitochondria of the cell
swell, as do all of the cytoplasmic compartments of the cell. The plasma, organelle and nuclear membranes all dissolve, and ribosomes disappear. Eventually the cell disintegrates, and leaves little bits and pieces.
Very easy to recognize.
