Answer to Question 1

B

Answer to Question 2

Lysosomes contain potent enzymes that allow them to digest bacteria or foreign matter brought into cell cytoplasm by phagocytosis. Destruction of neutrophils and monocytes during the inflammatory reaction can cause lysosomal enzymes to be released and create additional tissue injury, which in turn generates further inflammatory response.
