NR283 Exam 1 (week 2) Chamberlain Question and answers
correctly solved 2025
1. what are the 7 steps of inflammation? - injury
-vasoconstriction
-dead cells release cell components
-mast cell degranulation (when a mast
cell releases its chemical mediators)
-vasodilation, increased capillary
perme- ability
-WBC infiltrate
-phagocytosis
2. what is inflammation? the body's non-specific response to
tissue injury
3. what is the purpose of inflammation? - phagocytosis of foreign materials
-defense
-cleanup
-triggered WITH the specific
immune re- sponse
4. s/s of local inflammation - redness and heat (vasodilation)
-edema and pain (increased
fluid/exudate)
5. s/s of systemic inflammation - fever (caused by hypothalamus)
-leukocytosis (increased WBC count)x
6. Bradykinin function - PAIN
-vasodilation (allows WBC to go to
injury site)
7. prostaglandin function - FEVER
-helps with producing pain

-GPS pin that tells WBC where the injury
site is
9. Histamine function - vasodilation
-increased capillary permeability
-FIRST and BEST
10. leukotrines function - vasodilation
-increased capillary permeability
-2nd backup
11. neutrophils - first responder
-most prevalent
12. macrophages - mature at the site if infection
-primary phagocytes
13. mast cells - holds chemicals
-degranulation to release chemicals
14. platelets - stops bleeding
-isolate infection (sticks around
infection site to contain it)
15. clotting cascade - fibrin strands (platelets and fibrin
needed for clots)
-plasma proteins made by the liver
are used in this process
16. Kinin system cascade - uses bradykinin
-initiates pain
17. complement system cascade - uses C1-C9 proteins
-fights bacteria (punches holes in cell
