    B) remove contaminating microorganisms and initiate repair of damaged tissues.

    Explanation:

    Schematically we can divide the inflammation into five stages:

    1 - Release of mediators. They are molecules, most of them, of elementary structure that are released or

    synthesized by the mast cell under the action of certain stimuli.

    2 - Effect of mediators. Once released, these molecules produce vascular alterations and effects

    Chemotactics that favor the arrival of molecules and immune cells to the inflammatory focus.

    3 - Arrival of molecules and immune cells to the inflammatory focus. They come mostly from the blood, but

    also from the areas surrounding the focus.

    4 - Regulation of the inflammatory process. Like most of the immune responses, the inflammatory phenomenon

    It also integrates a series of inhibitory mechanisms aimed at finalizing or balancing the process.

    5 - Repair. Phase consisting of phenomena that will determine the total or partial repair of tissues

    damaged by the aggressor or by the inflammatory response itself.
