The statement is incorrect. Chemical and physical barriers are part of the innate immune system's first - line defense (like skin as a physical barrier and stomach acid as a chemical barrier). The inflammatory response is a second - line defense mechanism that occurs after the first - line barriers are breached. It involves processes such as vasodilation, increased vascular permeability, and the recruitment of immune cells (like neutrophils) to the site of infection or injury.
