The code is 11644 and 12052-51.

<h3>What are lesions?</h3>

An aberrant region of tissue inside or outside the body that could expand or alter in appearance, and which might or might not be malignant.

It is possible for lesions to have sources other than underlying diseases. Birthmarks, bug bites, and scars are a few examples.

Cancerous malignant tumors exist (ie, they invade other sites). They spread through the lymphatic or blood systems to distant locations. We refer to this spreading as metastasis. Although the metastatic disease can spread to any part of the body, it most frequently affects the liver, lungs, brain, and bones.

11644 (Excision, malignant lesion including margins, face, ears, eyelids, nose, lips; excised diameter 3.1 to 4.0 cm),

12052-51 (Intermediate repair; 2.5 cm or less; face, ears, eyes, nose, lips, and/or mucous membranes).

51 modifier is for numerous processes

Which description is an example of a phenotype?
pentagon [3]

The correct answer is D. Both A and C

Explanation:

In biology, a phenotype refers to a trait or characteristic that is observable in an organism, including physical characteristics, physiological characteristics, and behavioral characteristics. The phenotype is the result of the expression of genes or environmental factors. Considering this, both "a certain duck has a blue beak" and "most cheetahs live solitary lives" are phenotypes because they are traits that can be observed in terms of morphology or physical characteristics in the case of the duck or in terms of behavior in the case of the cheetah. On the other hand, a mutation is not necessarily a phenotype except if it is expressed.
