Answer:

Inflammation occurs only in live tissues and multicellular organisms

Step-by-step explanation:

Inflammation is a response to foreign antigen by the bodies immune system. Where chemicals from the white blood cells are released to the blood or affected tissue.

It cannot occur in dead bodies because the cells are dead too.

Amoeba is a single celled organism that cannot posses the complex components of the immune system.

Inflammation helps eliminate the initial cause and initiates tissue repair

Due to increase of blood flow to the affected region, it may cause redness and pain.
