What else can I help you with?
What causes edema that occurs during the inflammatory process?
Increased capillary permeability
What is the process whereby neutrophils and other white blood cells are attracted to an inflammatory site?
chemotaxis, not phagocytosis, pahgocytosis is when a cell engulfs something by the cell membrane.
Capsules interfere with a process in neutrophils called what?
Phagocytosis
Is breathing a inflammatory process?
Breathing is not an inflammatory process. An inflammatory process is where the body's immunity system through the white blood cells will respond to a particular injury.
What does consolidation mean regarding pneumonia?
When an acute inflammatory response against an alveolar infection occurs, alveolar capillaries dilate causing hyperemia, followed by exudation of fluid and emigration of neutrophils from the capillary into the alveoli.Thus, the air spaces become filled with inflammatory exudate, causing the affected lung to become airless. This is called consolidation.In fact, the standard medical dictionary states it as the process of becoming solid, as the changing of lung tissue from aerated and elastic to firm in certain diseases. But regarding pneumonia, this compact mass that forms and blocks the airspace is consolidation.
Is lupus an inflammatory process?
Yes, lupus is an inflammatory disease.
What is chronic inflammatory?
Prolonged inflammation, healing of the tissue from the inflammatory process
How does blood flow from capillary to venule?
By the process of diffusion.
How does capillary wall receive oxygen?
Capillary walls receive oxygen in the lungs by a process known as diffusion.
What is the main process involved in capillary exchange?
Diffusion
What helps to localize and contain the foreign material during an inflammatory response?
During an inflammatory response, neutrophils and macrophages work to "wall off" and contain the foreign material. This is done through the formation of granulomas, fibrosis, and encapsulation to prevent the spread of infection or damage to surrounding tissues. Additionally, the body may initiate the process of phagocytosis to engulf and remove the foreign material.
What is the process by which gases move in and out through the capillary walls?
Diffusion ;)
