Epithelialization, the first component of the proliferative phase of wound healing, is delayed in open wounds until what type of tissue has formed?
A) Granulation tissue
B) Fibrinous meshwork
C) Capillary circulation
D) Collagenous layers
Ans: A
Feedback:
Epithelialization cannot occur until granulation tissue has formed in the wound area. Collagen is part of the remodeling phase, after epithelialization is complete. Fibroblasts are active during the remodeling phase, to synthesize collagen. New capillaries are not formed as part of the wound-healing process.
