Question

select the correct statement regarding tissue repair. a) granulation tissue is highly susceptible to infection. b) the clot is formed from dried blood and transposed collagen fibers. c) granulation tissue is another name for a blood clot. d) inflammation causes capillaries to dilate and become permeable. question 11 (1.7 points) connective tissues that possess a large quantity of collagen fibers often provide the framework for organs such as the spleen and lymph nodes. true false

Explanation:

• Option A: Granulation tissue is not highly - susceptible to infarction as it has a good blood supply.
• Option B: A clot is formed from fibrin, platelets, and trapped blood cells, not transposed collagen fibers.
• Option C: Granulation tissue is new connective tissue and blood vessels, not a blood - clot.
• Option D: Inflammation indeed causes capillaries to dilate (vasodilation) and become more permeable to allow immune cells and fluid to reach the affected area.
• For the second question, the framework for organs like the spleen and lymph nodes is provided by reticular connective tissue (with reticular fibers), not collagen - rich connective tissue.

Answer:

D. Inflammation causes capillaries to dilate and become permeable.
