Question

which of the following is not triggered by the inflammation response?
multiple choice
dilation of capillaries
constriction of airways
inhibition of mucus
pain
itching

Explanation:

Inflammation response typically causes dilation of capillaries (to increase blood flow for immune response), pain (due to chemical mediators and nerve stimulation), and itching (in some cases, like allergic - related inflammation). Constriction of airways is more commonly associated with conditions like asthma (due to smooth muscle contraction in the airways, which can be triggered by allergens but is a different physiological mechanism than the general inflammation response in most tissues). Inhibition of mucus is not a typical direct effect of the inflammation response. Inflammation usually leads to increased mucus production in areas like the respiratory tract as part of the body's defense mechanism (to trap pathogens).

Answer:

C. Inhibition of mucus
