Answer to Question 1

A
Feedback:
Foreign substances cause an inflammatory or a hypersensitivity reaction in the body, resulting in vasodilation, edema, and itching. These signs and symptoms are the result of an allergic or inflammatory response. Vascular spasm or vasoconstriction, spontaneous platelet plug formation, and coagulation processes that form a fibrin clot are hemostatic initial responses, not the result of an allergic or inflammatory response.

Answer to Question 2

A
Feedback:
Smoking is a lifestyle and risk factor that an individual can control. Nutrition and stress are other lifestyle factors that an individual can control. Genetic makeup is a risk factor that an individual cannot control.
