Which of the following represents a relationship between a gland and the hormone it secretes?

a. Pulls the edges of the wound together: Wound closure is a later stage of healing, not a primary function of inflammation.

b. Causes bleeding to clean out the wound: While some bleeding might occur initially, inflammation doesn't actively cause bleeding to clean the wound.

c. Cleans out debris and toxins from the wound: Inflammation is a natural response to injury or infection. It involves increased blood flow, redness, swelling, and heat. This process helps to deliver white blood cells and other immune factors to the area to fight infection and remove debris and damaged tissues, promoting healing.

d. Builds the scab to protect the wound: Scab formation is a result of dried blood and plasma, not a direct effect of inflammation.

a. Carrying oxygenated blood from the heart to the peripheral tissue: This describes the function of systemic arteries, not the pulmonary artery.

b. Carrying deoxygenated blood from the lungs to the heart: This describes the pulmonary veins, not the pulmonary artery.

c. Carrying oxygenated blood from the lungs to the left side of the heart: This describes the function of the pulmonary veins, not the pulmonary artery.

d. Carrying deoxygenated blood from the right side of the heart to the lungs: Correct. The pulmonary artery carries deoxygenated blood from the right ventricle of the heart to the lungs for oxygenation.
