Answer to Question 1

A

Answer to Question 2

A
Feedback:
The local unhealed area of epithelial tissue is called an ulcer. The collection of pus in a localized area is called an abscess. A canal or passage leading to an abscess is called a wound sinus. An abnormal tube-like passage that connects two internal organs, or connects an internal organ to the surface of the body, is called a fistula. A fistula is often difficult to heal.
