Question 1 of 5
The initial response of tissue after injury is
Correct Answer: B
Rationale: The initial tissue response to injury is transient vasoconstriction, lasting seconds to minutes, to reduce blood loss by narrowing vessels at the injury site. Immediate vasodilation (A) or transient vasodilation (D) occurs later in inflammation to increase blood flow and deliver immune cells, not initially. Immediate vasoconstriction (C) implies a sustained action, which doesn't fit the brief, temporary nature of this phase. Transient vasoconstriction (B) is followed by vasodilation in the inflammatory process, aligning with the body's hemostatic and healing sequence. This brief vessel narrowing minimizes hemorrhage before the inflammatory cascade begins, making B the precise and correct answer based on physiological response timing.
