Question [CLICK ON ANY CHOICE TO KNOW THE RIGHT ANSWER]
Chronic-active inflammation has a high number of neutrophils, fibrin and plasma proteins but the stimuli is still present
A
True
B
False
C
Either A or B
D
None of the above
Explanation: 

Detailed explanation-1: -The factors that can stimulate inflammation include microorganisms, physical agents, chemicals, inappropriate immunological responses, and tissue death. Infectious agents such as viruses and bacteria are some of the most common stimuli of inflammation.

Detailed explanation-2: -Neutrophils are continuously recruited to the site of chronic inflammation and contribute to driving the process through the release of serine proteases and the formation of neutrophil extracellular traps (NETs), as well as the activation of other immune cells.

Detailed explanation-3: -Left unaddressed, chronic inflammation can damage healthy cells, tissues and organs, and may cause internal scarring, tissue death and damage to the DNA in previously healthy cells. Ultimately, this can lead to the development of potentially disabling or life-threatening illnesses, such as cancer or Type-2 diabetes.

Detailed explanation-4: -In general, chronic inflammation is characterized by the presence of macrophages, monocytes, and lymphocytes, with the proliferation of blood vessels and connective tissue.
