Severe

Several methods to assess the severity of psoriasis are available including Psoriasis Area and Severity Index (PASI), Physician Global Assessment (PGA) for psoriasis, and the National Psoriasis Foundation Psoriasis Score (NPF-PS). In terms of body surface area, psoriasis is generally classified as mild when it affects less than 5% of the body, moderate when it affects 5-10%, and severe for >10%. Based on PASI, which includes a rating or score for the surface area of the body affected by psoriasis, the "Area Score" would be 2.

PASI Area Score rating for Psoriasis: 
0: 0 (clear)
1: <10%
2: 10–<30%
3: 30–<50%
4: 50–<70%
5: 70–<90%
6: 90-<100%

What is the different between mechanical digestion and chemical digestion in the mouth?

Alborosie

Answer and Explanation:

The mouth is part of the digestion system.

Mechanical Digestion is the physical motion our mouth makes to chew up the food. We grind up the food with our teeth, then swallow the food into the next part of the digestive system.

Chemical Digestion in the mouth is the saliva our mouth produces. It breaks down the food along side the mechanical part of the mechanical digestion.
