Explanation:

Question 2

First - degree burns affect the outer layer of skin (epidermis). They typically cause pain and redness. Blisters are a sign of second - degree burns, and charred skin with burned fat is a sign of third - degree burns. Splotchy skin with blisters is also more characteristic of second - degree burns. So the option with pain and redness is correct.

To stop bleeding from a wound, direct pressure with a clean bandage or cloth is a common and effective method. Rinsing with sterile water is for cleaning the wound, applying antibiotic ointment is for preventing infection, and aloe vera gel is often used for burns or soothing skin, not for stopping bleeding.

Answer:

C. pain and redness
