Question

question 6 of 20
a(n)______is a cut in which a portion of the skin or other soft tissue is
partly or completely torn away, exposing fat or muscle.
a. punoture
b. laceration
c. avulsion
d. contusion

Explanation:

An avulsion is a type of injury where a portion of the skin or soft tissue is partly or completely torn away. A puncture is a small hole made by a pointed object. A laceration is a cut, but not specifically one with tissue torn away. A contusion is a bruise. So, based on the description in the question, avulsion (option C) is the correct answer.

Answer:

C. avulsion
