B. Replaces injured tissues with connective tissue
Explanation:
Inflammatory responses are natural defense mechanism of body of higher organisms which have been evolved to protect the organism from various types of infections and injuries. The main function of his response is to -

- Eliminate the injurious agents to prevent further increase in the infection inside the body
- Remove the damaged tissue of the body so that it can start the mechanism of tissue healing
Thus, all the functions of the inflammatory responses that are mentioned in the options are correct except option B.
Growth factors are hormones, proteins, or steroid molecules that regulate many cellular functions. They can stimulate the cell division by giving the signal to the cell to progress in the cell cycle.
<u>Explanation</u>:
Growth factors are naturally produced within the body and travels through the body to bind to their receptors present on their target cells. These growth factors are capable of signalling the cell to divide, proliferate, or heel. Their main aim is to signal or tell other cell when to do and what to do. Due to the binding with the receptors the growth factors activates specific genes.
