Q

Pavementing

A

Adherence of white blood cells to the walls of a blood vessel during inflammation

Leukocyte sis

A

A temporary increase in the number of white blood cells circulating in blood

27
Q

Purulent

A

Containing or forming pus

28
Q

Regeneration

A

The process by which injured tissue is replaced with tissue identical to that present before injury

29
Q

Repair

A

The restoration of damaged or diseased tissues

30
Q

Serous

A

Having a watery consistency

31
Q

Systemic

A

Pertaining to or affecting the body as a whole
