Tissue healing.
Correct Answer
inflamation
formation of granulation tissue
proud fleshExplanation
The correct answer includes three stages of tissue healing: inflammation, formation of granulation tissue, and proud flesh. Inflammation is the initial response to injury, characterized by redness, swelling, and pain. Formation of granulation tissue follows, where new blood vessels and connective tissue form to fill the wound. Lastly, proud flesh refers to excessive growth of granulation tissue that can impede healing. These stages are crucial for the body to repair damaged tissue and restore normal function.Rate this question:
- 24.
Second intention healing.
Correct Answer
wound edges are separated
granulation tissue fills the gap
predisposing to scar tissueExplanation
Second intention healing occurs when wound edges are separated, leading to a gap that needs to be filled. In this process, granulation tissue forms and fills the gap, eventually resulting in scar tissue. This type of healing is different from primary intention healing, where wound edges are closely approximated and there is minimal tissue loss. Second intention healing is often seen in larger or contaminated wounds that cannot be closed directly, and the formation of scar tissue is a natural part of the healing process in these cases.Rate this question:
- 25.
First intention healing.
Correct Answer
skin heals to side to side
no significant scarringExplanation
First intention healing, also known as primary intention healing, refers to the process of wound healing where the edges of the wound are brought together and closed with sutures, staples, or adhesive strips. In this type of healing, the skin heals by growing new tissue from the edges of the wound towards the center, resulting in minimal scarring. This is in contrast to second intention healing, where the wound is left open to heal from the bottom up, often resulting in more noticeable scarring.Rate this question:
- 26.
Three cellular layers of skin.
Correct Answer
Epidermis
Dermis
HypodermisExplanation
The correct answer is the order in which the three cellular layers of the skin are arranged. The epidermis is the outermost layer of the skin, followed by the dermis, and then the hypodermis. The epidermis is responsible for protecting the body from external factors and contains cells such as keratinocytes and melanocytes. The dermis is located beneath the epidermis and contains blood vessels, nerves, and various structures like hair follicles and sweat glands. The hypodermis is the deepest layer and consists of fat cells that provide insulation and cushioning.Rate this question:
