Answer to Question 1

ANS: B
The two main layers of the skin incised during the initial incision are the dermis and epidermis. It can also extend into the subcutaneous layers.

Answer to Question 2

ANS: B
Some requirements of prosthetic materials that are to be implanted into the body include producing little or no tissue reaction, being compatible with physiologic processes, being sterile and noncarcinogenic, having viable and adequate tissue coverage, having an adequate blood supply around them, not degenerating, and conforming to normal tissue configuration. These qualities of the implant help provide support, restore function, and augment or restore body contour.
