1. The characteristic, localized cardinal signs of acute inflammation include:
h6 h6 h6 h6 h6 h6 h6 h6
A) fever.
B) fatigue.
C) redness.
D) granuloma.
2. The vascular, hemodynamic stage of acute inflammation is initiated by
h6 h6 h6 h6 h6 h6 h6 h6 h6
momentary vasoconstriction followed by vasodilation that causes localized:
h6 h6 h6 h6 h6 h6 h6 h6
A) bleeding.
B) congestion.
C) pale skin. h6
D) coolness.
3. The cellular stage of acute inflammation is marked by the movement of
h6 h6 h6 h6 h6 h6 h6 h6 h6 h6 h6
leukocytes into the area. Which of the following cells arrives early in great
h6 h6 h6 h6 h6 h6 h6 h6 h6 h6 h6 h6 h6
numbers?
h6
A) Basophils
B) Lymphocytes
C) Neutrophils
D) Platelets

h6 h6 h6 h6 h6 h6 h6 h6 h6 h6
step in the process?
h6 h6 h6 h6
A) Engulfment
B) Intracellular killing h6
C) Antigen margination h6
D) Recognition and adherence h6 h6
5. Which of the following mediators of inflammation causes increased capillary
h6 h6 h6 h6 h6 h6 h6 h6 h6
permeability and pain?
h6 h6 h6
A) Serotonin
B) Histamine
C) Bradykinin
D) Nitric oxide h6
6. Inflammatory exudates are a combination of several types. Which of the
h6 h6 h6 h6 h6 h6 h6 h6 h6 h6
following exudates is composed of enmeshed necrotic cells?
h6 h6 h6 h6 h6 h6 h6 h6

h6 h6 h6 h6 h6 h6 h6 h6 h6
which of the following phenomena?
h6 h6 h6 h6 h6

9. Exogenous pyrogens (interleukin-1) and the presence of bacteria in the blood
h6 h6 h6 h6 h6 h6 h6 h6 h6 h6
lead to the release of endogenous pyrogens that:
h6 h6 h6 h6 h6 h6 h6 h6
A) stabilize thermal control in the brain. h6 h6 h6 h6 h6
