mitochondria
ribosomes
lysosomes
DNA is housed in the cell's
cytoplasm
nucleus
Golgi apparatus

One of the cardinal signs of inflammation is
redness
necrosis
contracture
cyanosis
During acute inflammation, white blood cells
gather in the center of the blood vessels
move to the periphery of the blood vessels and stick to their walls
form blood clots to stop vascular leakage
deliver oxygen to the site of the injury
Choose all of the granular lymphocytes listed below.
basophils
monocytes
neutrophils
lymphocytes
The most abundant white blood cell is the
eosinophil
t lymphocyte
mast cell
neutrophil
The evolution of a monocyte when it escapes the bloodstream that is responsible for phagocytosis in the later stages of inflammation is the
neutrophil
macrophage
plasma cell
basophil
Inflammation marked with rapid onset and short duration (days) is called
chronic inflammation
pseudomembranous inflammation
granulomatous inflammation
acute inflammation
The cells responsible for developing new blood vessels during healing are called
myofibroblasts
fibroblasts
angioblasts
basal cells
A form of irregular healing that results in excessive tightening of the scar and surrounding tissue is
a keloid
dehiscence
contracture

basophils
neutrophils
eosinophils
macrophages
