Question

A) "Inflammation is a temporary cell-to-cell interaction,."
B) "Inflammation requires the immune cells to talk to each other."
C) "Inflammation occurs between closely knit cell pathways."
D) "Inflammation is critical for the development of the body."
E) "Inflammation regulates the behavior of cells."

Answer 1

A) "Inflammation is a temporary cell-to-cell interaction,."
B) "Inflammation requires the immune cells to talk to each other."

Explanation: A) Inflammation is a transient or temporary cell-to-cell interaction that occurs between cells of the immune system. It is a process that utilizes cell signaling systems, that require the immune cells to communicate with each other. Inflammation does not occur between cell junctions or pathways. Inflammation is critical to body's ability to rid itself of harmful substances; however, inflammation is not critical to the development of the body. The extracellular matrix plays a substantial role in regulating the behavior of cells in multicellular organisms, not inflammation.
