Question

inflammation
o is not affected by the action of the complement system
o does not occur during allergic reactions
o is caused by the release of histamine, which causes capillaries to become \leaky\
o is accentuated by the administration of antihistamine drugs
o is initiated by the buildup of dead cells and bacteria

question 5
the skin acts as a barrier to microbial invasion because
o all of the above are true.
o its moist surface slows bacterial growth
o the dead skin cells contain bacterial nutrients
o secretions from sweat glands and sebaceous glands inhibit bacterial growth

question 6

Explanation:

1. For the inflammation question: Inflammation is caused by the release of histamine which makes capillaries more permeable (leaky). The complement system can affect inflammation, it occurs in allergic reactions, anti - histamine drugs reduce rather than accentuate it, and it is not initiated by the buildup of dead cells and bacteria as its main cause.
2. For the skin - barrier question: The skin acts as a barrier because secretions from sweat glands and sebaceous glands inhibit bacterial growth. Its surface is not moist in a way that slows bacterial growth, and dead skin cells do not contain substances that help with being a barrier in the way described.

Answer:

Question 4: is caused by the release of histamine, which causes capillaries to become "leaky"
Question 5: Secretions from sweat glands and sebaceous glands inhibit bacterial growth
