Fill in the Blank QuestionFill in the blank question.Biochemicals released by leukocytes cause an increase in permeability of small blood vessels at sites where  microorganisms have invaded human tissues. This results in swelling, an accumulation of fluid in the interstitial spaces, and is called a(n) response.

When microorganisms invade tissues, leukocytes release chemicals that ______, producing swelling that delays the spread of pathogens to other areas of the body. Multiple choice question.dilate small blood vessels make large blood vessels less permeablemake small blood vessels more permeableconstrict small blood vessels

Fill in the Blank QuestionFill in the blank question.As bacteria, leukocytes, and damaged cells accumulate in inflamed tissue, a thick fluid called may form and remain while the invading microorganisms are active.

The swelling seen in an acute inflammatory response in a mild injury is mainly due to:Question 24Answera.the production of chemotactic factors by neutrophilsb.an increase in arteriolar vasodilationc.plasma (fluid) leaving the circulation and entering tissued.the production of fluid by fibroblastse.liquefactive necrosis due to bacterial action on tissue

What is the role of inflammation in response to damage?A. Increases mucosal secretions at the siteB. Fights pathogens that enter the bodyC. Provides a barrier for tissue from the outside environmentD. Creates swelling to help protect the site of damage
