Question

a burn that only involves the top layer of skin is classified as a—
superficial burn.
third - degree burn.
dermal burn.
all of the above

Explanation:

A superficial burn only affects the epidermis (the top layer of skin). A third - degree burn affects all layers of the skin and underlying tissues. A dermal burn affects the dermis (the layer below the epidermis). Since the question specifies a burn that only involves the top layer of skin, we can eliminate the other options.

Answer:

Superficial burn.
