Questions and Answers

What is the principal material holding a wound together during the inflammatory stage?

  • Keratin
  • Collagen
  • Elastin
  • Fibrin (correct)
  • How do wounds in which only the surface epithelium is injured (i.e., abrasions) heal?

  • By formation of scar tissue directly over the wound
  • By migration of muscle cells to cover the wound
  • By proliferation of blood vessels across the wound bed

  • Blood vessels
  • Extracellular matrix proteins
  • Another free edge of epithelium (correct)
