Nadia’s Burn
Burns
Types
First-degree (superficial) burns:affect only the outer layer of skin, the epidermis. The burn site is red, painful, dry, and has no blisters. Mild sunburn is an example. Long-term tissue damage is rare.
Second-degree (partial thickness) burns: involve the epidermis and part of the lower layer of skin, the dermis. The burn site looks red, blistered, and may be swollen and painful.
-
Third-degree (full thickness) burns:destroy the epidermis and dermis. They may go into the innermost layer of skin, the subcutaneous tissue. The burn site may look white or blackened and charred and there will be no pain due to the destruction of the nerve endings.
Fourth-degree burns:go through both layers of the skin and underlying tissue as well as deeper tissue, possibly involving muscle and bone. There is no feeling in the area since the nerve endings are destroyed.

Apoptosis
the process of programmed cell death. It is used during early development to eliminate unwanted cells.

surrounded by a thin peptidoglycan cell wall, which itself is surrounded by an outer membrane containing lipopolysaccharide

lack an outer membrane but are surrounded by layers of peptidoglycan many times thicker than is found in the Gram-negatives.
