The correct answer is B.

When a tissue of the body gets injured, the immune system immediately initiates an inflammatory response localized at the site of injury. The inflammatory response is a defense mechanism of the innate or non-specific arm of the immune system.

In an inflammatory response, small blood vessels at site of injury dilate causing increased blood flow into the area. White blood cells and special serum proteins speedily arrive at the site and begin destroying bacteria and other foreign bodies that may have gained access to the body through the broken tissue.

Explanation:

Some general comments about gas exchange and diffusion will be made, followed by a description of how oxygen is carried in the blood. The binding of oxygen to hemoglobin will be discussed, including the oxygen saturation (or dissociation) curve and factors (allosteric effectors) which cause it to shift. Next, a discussion of the effects of carbon monoxide on oxygen binding will be presented. Finally, a description of artificial oxygen carriers will be presented. Most of these topics are covered in standard textbooks [6,10,54,113] and monographs on oxygen transport [112].

A student conducted an experiment to test whether talking to plants would help them to grow faster. The student talked to one gr
timurjin [86]
The answer I believe would be talking to plants may or may not helps plants grow faster because the amount of water given was likely different for each group. I say this because there are more than one manipulated variables. (Each experiment should only have one manipulated variable to really be able to come to a conclusion) The student wants to see if talking to the plant will help. But the student also used different watering methods. So there was more than one manipulated variable. This can not give a good enough result because we do not know which affected the plant- the talking or the watering method/amount.

Hope this helps!
