Quizplus · Accepted Answer

The most inclusive set of symptoms of inflammation is swelling, heat, redness, and pain. While some forms of inflammation may involve only a subset of these symptoms, they are all commonly present in inflammatory responses. Choice A is incorrect because it omits swelling, and Choice B is incorrect because whitening of the surrounding tissue is not a common symptom of inflammation. Choice C is partially correct, but again misses the presence of heat and redness. Choice D is incorrect because it refers to antibody production, which is not a symptom of inflammation.
