Across
- 2. The cells, fluid and chemicals that pass from the blood vessel lumen into the injured tissue.
- 3. An inflammatory reaction of a few hours to a few days duration.
- 5. A usually spherical structure consisting of purulent exudate encapsulated in a fibrous capsule.
- 7. An exudate containing a large amount of mucus.
- 10. An exudate consisting largely of blood.
- 11. A thin membrane covering a mucosal surface, composed of fibrinous exudate, mucus and necrotic and other debris.
- 12. The process by which certain cells internalize particles, hydrolyze them and eject the debris.
- 14. Excessive contraction of a scar.
- 15. The process in which bacteria are coated with C3b, antibody and fibronectin, rendering them more susceptible to phagocytosis.

- 29. Complete repair of injured tissue.
- 30. The body’s attempt to replace dead or injured tissue with healthy tissue.
- 32. The slow, rolling motion of leucocytes on the inside of the capillary wall in the pre-exudative phase of inflammation.
- 33. An exudate containing large numbers of leucocytes.

- 26. Polypeptide mediatiors secreted by cells in response to a stimulus.
- 31. repair and healing
