Read Wound Healing Cell Sequence
A short NSEB read on wound healing cell sequence, followed by the linked original question(s).
Living-system questions are solved by matching a structure or organism to its function, process and stated condition.
Core idea
Wound repair is staged. Neutrophils arrive early to contain microbes; monocytes enter and differentiate into macrophages, which clear debris and coordinate repair. Fibroblasts then proliferate and lay down extracellular matrix, including collagen. In a time-course graph, identify the early inflammatory peak first and the later structural product last.
Neutrophils to monocytes to fibroblasts to collagen
Neutrophils arrive first, followed by monocytes or macrophages. Fibroblasts then proliferate and collagen accumulates later, matching P, Q, R and S.
