Inflammatory response phase

1. Once a tissue (to injure), the process of healing begins immediately. 2. The destruction of tissue (to produce) direct injury to the cells of the various soft tissues. 3. Cellular injury (to result) in altered metabolism and the liberation of materials that initiate the inflammatory response. 4. It (to characterize) symptomatically by redness, swelling, tenderness, and increased temperature. 5. Inflammation (to be) a process through which leukocytes and other phagocytic cells and exudate (to deliver) to the injured tissue. 6. This cellular reaction (to be) generally protective, tending to localize or dispose of injury by-products through phagocytosis and thus setting the stage for repair.
