Regeneration of the epidermis in a second degree burn

Question

Quizplus · Accepted Answer

Regeneration of the epidermis in a second degree burn comes from epithelial cells within the hair follicles and sweat glands as well as from epithelial cells at the edges of the damaged area. Skin grafts may be required for more severe burns, but are not necessarily needed for second degree burns. Therefore, option D, which combines both options stating that regeneration comes from hair follicles, sweat glands, and edges of the damaged area, is the best choice.
