Questions and Answers

What is the primary difference between regeneration and repair in wound healing?

  • Regeneration is faster than repair
  • Regeneration replaces lost tissue with the same type, while repair replaces lost tissue with fibrous scar (correct)
  • Regeneration occurs in simple tissue architecture, while repair occurs in complex tissue architecture
  • Regeneration occurs in labile cells, while repair occurs in stable cells
  • What is the main purpose of the coagulation cascade in the haemostasis phase of wound healing?

  • To stop bleeding and promote clotting (correct)
  • To stimulate the inflammatory response
  • To promote cell division and proliferation
  • To remodel the tissue architecture
  • What determines the type of wound healing that occurs, whether it's regeneration or repair?

  • The presence of inflammation
  • The type of cell involved
  • The tissue architecture and amount of tissue lost (correct)
  • The amount of tissue lost
  • What is the financial impact of wound healing on healthcare systems?
