Question

1. the _________________ controls both systems. if you disrupt the nervous systems ability to transmit messages (like through spinal cord injury or severe brain trauma) then death will occur.

types of wounds

1. these are usually non - serious injuries that result in damage to the _________________

_________________
they occur when there is contact between skin and a rough surface (like a knee and pavement)
these do not generally require medical care, though they may cause infection if not properly cared for.

1. these wounds are caused by sharp objects that _________________

_________________
knives, glass, razors, etc.
the cuts can be shallow or deep, and the amount of blood lost depends on the depth and location of the incision.
the head has many blood vessels and will bleed profusely, where the finger will bleed much less.
the depth and location of the incision will determine its severity.

1. these wounds are _________________

_________________ from an object, like a fist or bat.
the wounds damage the skin and underlying tissue. because the edges are not smooth and clean, the wounds are more prone to infection.
lacerations tend to bleed much more readily than incisions or abrasions due to the manner of tissue damage.

1. these wounds _________________ that may be deep or shallow.

punctures are caused by nails, needles, needle - nose pliers, sticks, etc.
they may be minor or serious wounds, depending on location and depth.
these wounds are cavities in the body that are formed when a bullet passes through the tissue.

1. the _________________ since the bullet was in a typical bullet shape upon entry.

as the bullet enters the body, it may flatten and mushroom at the tip, causing extensive internal damage.
if the bullet does not lodge in the body, and passes through, it will leave a
severity of the wound is determined by the location of the shot.

Explanation:

Question 28:

The nervous system (specifically the central nervous system, including the brain and spinal cord) controls bodily systems. Disrupting its message - transmission (e.g., spinal cord injury, brain trauma) can be fatal. So the blank should be filled with "nervous system".

The description (contact with rough surface, non - serious, skin damage) matches abrasions, which damage the outer layer of skin (epidermis, sometimes dermis). So the blank is "epidermis (or outer layer of skin, or skin)".

Wounds from sharp objects like knives, glass, razors are incisions (cuts) that break the skin. The sharp objects "cut through the skin" (or similar phrasing like "make an incision in the skin").

Answer:

nervous system
