Answer to Question 1

ANS: C
Deep partial-thickness burns involve the entire dermis, sparing skin appendages such as hair folli-cles and sweat glands. First-degree burns involve only the epidermis. Superficial partial-thickness burns involve deeper thickness. Third-degree burns involve destruction of the entire epidermis, dermis, and often underlying subcutaneous tissue.

Answer to Question 2

ANS: B
Second degree burns leave tactile and pain sensors intact and are the most painful. All of the other options result in less pain.
