_________________(Blank 1) is the standard, initial response of the body to injury. Whether biological, chemical, physical, or radiation burns, all injuries lead to the same sequence of physiological events. Inflammation limits the extent of injury, partially or fully eliminates the cause of injury, and initiates repair and regeneration of damaged tissue. _________________(Blank 2), or accidental cell death, causes inflammation. _________________(Blank 3) is programmed cell death, a normal step-by-step process that destroys cells no longer needed by the body. By mechanisms still under investigation, apoptosis does not initiate the inflammatory response. Acute inflammation resolves over time by the healing of tissue. If inflammation persists, it becomes chronic and leads to diseased conditions. Arthritis and tuberculosis are examples of chronic inflammation. The suffix "-itis" denotes inflammation of a specific organ or type, for example, _________________(blank 4) is the inflammation of the peritoneum, and _________________(blank 5) refers to the inflammation of the meninges, the tough membranes that surround the central nervous system The four cardinal signs of inflammation—(blank 6) —were first recorded in antiquity. Cornelius Celsus is credited with documenting these signs during the days of the Roman Empire, as early as the first century AD. A fifth sign, _________________(blank 7), may also accompany inflammation. Upon tissue injury, damaged cells release inflammatory chemical signals that evoke local _________________(blank 8), the widening of the blood vessels. _________________(Blank 9) blood flow results in apparent redness and heat. In response to injury, mast cells present in tissue degranulate, releasing the potent vasodilator _________________(blank 10). Increased blood flow and inflammatory mediators recruit _________________(blank 11) cells to the site of inflammation. The _________________(blank 12) lining the local blood vessel becomes "leaky" under the influence of histamine and other inflammatory mediators allowing neutrophils, macrophages, and fluid to move from the blood into the interstitial tissue spaces. The excess liquid in tissue causes swelling, more properly called _________________(blank 13). The swollen tissues squeezing pain receptors cause the sensation of pain. Prostaglandins released from injured cells also activate pain neurons. Non-steroidal anti-inflammatory drugs (NSAIDs) reduce pain because they inhibit the synthesis of _________________(blank 14). High levels of NSAIDs reduce inflammation. Antihistamines decrease allergies by blocking histamine receptors and as a result the histamine response.

Step 1: Action potential occurs in the somatic motor neuron Step 2: ACH that is stored in the synaptic vesicle of the synaptic end bulb is released and diffused across the synaptic cleft Step 3: ACH binds to specific receptors on the motor end plate Step 4: Entry of Na+ ions causes depolarization of sarcolemma Step 5: Action potential travels along T-tubules Step 6: At the onset of muscle fiber contraction, the sarcoplasmic reticulum releases calcium ions into the sarcoplasm Step 7: The calcium ions then bind to troponin, which moves tropomyosin away from myosin binding sites on actin Step 8: Now that the binding sites are free, ATP is hydrolyzed into ADP and a phosphate. This energizes the myosin head which then assumes the "cocked" position Step 9: The energized myosin head then attaches to the myosin binding site on actin and a phosphate is released. This is referred to as the "crossbridge" Step 10: The myosin head pivots changing its position from 90 degrees to 45, pulling the thin filament past the thick filament towards the center of the sarcomere. This is referred to as the power stroke Step 11: Another molecule of ATP binds to the ATP binding site on myosin allowing for myosin to detach from actin
