- Microbial recognition and tissue damage initiate an inflammatory response. True/False: The inflammatory response is characterized by four classic symptoms: heat, redness, pain, and swelling. In some instances, this response can be triggered by stimuli that are non-infectious such as asbestos, a process known as ‘sterile inflammation.’ When exposure to the stimulating trigger is persistent, a state of chronic inflammation can result. This process is likely to be detrimental to the health of the host.arrow_forwardThe bacteria E Coli uses the Trp operon to control its production of tryptophan-producing enzymes.
