A bruise is a result of damage to the tissue underneath the skin. It occurs when small blood vessels, known as capillaries, break and leak blood into the surrounding tissues. This leads to a discoloration of the skin, usually appearing as a dark blue or purple mark. Bruises may also be accompanied by pain and swelling. The options "skin is torn away" and "skin is rubbed away" do not accurately describe a bruise, as the skin remains intact in this condition.Rate this question:

What is a punture?
Correct Answer
may not bleed alot but may be caused from a pointy objectExplanation
A puncture is a type of injury that may not result in a lot of bleeding but is caused by a sharp or pointy object. This type of injury occurs when an object penetrates the skin, creating a small hole or wound. Unlike a cut or laceration, a puncture wound does not typically cause significant bleeding because the object that caused the injury may seal the wound. However, puncture wounds can still be deep and may carry a risk of infection due to the object introducing bacteria into the body.Rate this question:
