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 invading cells and eliminate them. d. increase blood flow at the site of the wound to flush out invading pathogen.
The inflammatory response involves increasing blood flow to areas of the body that contain immune system cells fighting a pathogen or foreign object. The inflammatory response is an example of a positive feedback loop. Based on this, what would cause the inflammatory response to stop in a certain area of the body? a. The white blood cells destroy all of the pathogens/foreign objects. b. The white blood cells disperse away from the site. c. More white blood cells arrive to fight the pathogens/foreign objects. d. Fewer white blood cells are needed to finish fighting the infection
