Question

Quizplus · Accepted Answer

A blister forms at the junction of the dermis and epidermis, where there is a separation of the two layers due to an accumulation of fluid. Option B is incorrect because stratum corneum and stratum germinativum are two layers of the epidermis, and blisters do not form between these two layers. Option C is partially correct as the dermis is involved in blister formation, but the separation actually occurs at the junction of the dermis and epidermis. Option D is also partially correct as it includes the correct answer of A, but also includes an incorrect answer of C.
