Cellular injury Correct Answer-What precipitates the inflammatory process? Mast cell degranulation, activation of the coagulation cascade, activation of the kinin cascade, release of chemotactic factors, and the activation of the complement cascade Correct Answer-What are the first 5 steps of the inflammatory process?
