Total questions: 15
Worksheet time: 8mins
What is the main purpose of inflammation in the body?
To cause harm to the body
To fight against infections and injuries
To decrease immune response
To increase toxins in the body
Which of the following is NOT a hallmark of inflammation?
Coldness
Pain
Redness
Swelling
What are the three characteristics of microcirculation according to Julius Cohnheim?
Dilation, Increase permeability, WBC migration
Constriction, Increase permeability, No WBC migration
No change, Decrease permeability, WBC migration
Constriction, Decrease permeability, No WBC migration
How does the acute inflammatory response differ from the chronic inflammatory response?
Chronic response is preceded by unsuccessful inflammatory response
Acute response is characterized by dense infiltration of lymphocytes
Chronic response is immediate unlike acute response
Acute response lasts longer than chronic response
What is the role of neutrophils in the inflammatory response?
Form granulomas
Control inflammatory response
Attack first and ingest bacteria
Stimulate immune response
What is the main function of eosinophils in the inflammatory response?
Control inflammatory response
Attack parasites
Stimulate immune response
Form granulomas
What is the primary function of basophils in the inflammatory response?
Attack parasites
Stimulate immune response
Control inflammatory response
Form granulomas
What is the role of platelets in the inflammatory response?
Stop bleeding if vascular injury has occurred
Control inflammatory response
Stimulate immune response
Attack parasites
What happens to neutrophils after they ingest bacteria in the inflammatory response?
They control the immune response
They form granulomas
They stimulate the endothelial cells
They die and are removed as pus
What is the main characteristic of chronic inflammation?
Decrease in vascular permeability
Immediate response unlike acute inflammation
Formation of granulomas
Dense infiltration of lymphocytes and macrophages
What is the purpose of granulomas in chronic inflammation?
To stimulate immune response
To wall off and isolate the infected site
To control inflammatory response
To increase vascular permeability
What are giant cells formed by in chronic inflammation?
Fusion of basophils
Fusion of eosinophils
Fusion of neutrophils
Fusion of macrophages
What happens to cellular debris within a granuloma in chronic inflammation?
It forms a thick-walled structure in the tissue
It diffuses out and leaves a clear fluid
It increases vascular permeability
It stimulates immune response
What is the main function of monocytes and macrophages in the inflammatory response?
To stimulate immune response
To act directly against parasites
To take longer time to migrate to the injury site
To control inflammatory response
What is the main function of granuloma in chronic inflammation?
To stimulate immune response
To control inflammatory response
To wall off and isolate the infected site
To increase vascular permeability
