<span>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.

1: <10%
2: 10–<30%

What is a function of a bacterium's capsule?
nevsk [136]

The purpose of a bacterium's capsule is protection.

<h3>What use does the capsule of a bacteria serve?</h3>

White blood cells may eat and kill pathogens, but capsules could stop that from happening (phagocytosis). Although the precise mechanism for avoiding phagocytosis is unknown, it may occur because the presence of capsules makes the surface elements of bacteria more slippery, preventing the bacterium from being absorbed by phagocytic cells.

Capsules comprised of bacterial defenses and the host. The main function of the capsules of pathogenic bacteria is to prevent opsonophagocytosis or in the case of Gram-negative bacteria, complement-mediated lysis by shielding the bacterial surface from interactions with the host immune system.
