26) All but one of the following occur during the inflammatory response. Select the example below that does not describe the process of inflammation. A) Increases capillary permeability. B) Release of prostaglandins resulting in pain. C) Chemotaxis draws leucocytes to the site of injury. D) Vasoconstriction will prevent excessive blood loss due to injury. 27) Membrane attack complex (MAC) kills by ________. A) allowing the organelles to spill free from the bacteria B) penetrating the capsule of the bacteria giving antibiotic drugs access to bacterial cells C) providing a passage for antibodies to enter into the bacterial cytosol D) disrupting the selectively permeability of a bacteria's plasma membrane 28) Interferons ________. A) are virus-specific, so that an interferon produced against one virus could not protect cells against another virus B) are routinely used in nasal sprays for the common cold C) act by increasing the rate of cell division D) interfere with viral replication within cells

B) Release of prostaglandins resulting in pain: This is also true, as prostaglandins are involved in the inflammatory response and can cause pain and swelling. C) Chemotaxis draws leukocytes to the site of injury: This is true, as chemotaxis is the process by Show more…

The inflammatory response is one of the immune system's nonspecific responses to infection. How does the inflammatory response act as a defense against infection? a) Release of histamine increases blood flow, which brings an influx of white blood cells. b) oil and sweat on the surface of the skin inhibit bacterial growth. c) body heat destroys cellular proteins needed by the invaders to reproduce. d) the high body temperature kills the disease-causing bacteria.
The overall role of the inflammatory response is to a. contain and eliminate foreign cells and material at the site of infection. b. increase heat at the site of infection to activate enzymes used in the immune response. c. produce antibodies that bind to and eliminate invading cells. d. increase blood flow at the site of a wound to flush out invading pathogens.
