The skin acts as the outer protective shield for the internal organs present in the body. it act as a barrier and protects the organs from damage from heat, injury, light and the infections. When the skin is damaged, such as in the second and the third-degree burns, this protective barrier is broken, and the internal organs are exposed to damage and infections as the bacteria now have a direct access to the inner organs. The bacteria breeding in the burn wounds are often antibiotic-resistant and fatal. Hence, the antibiotics taken by Tessa might not work on them and further increase her risk of infection.

12. Unlike many retellings of the myth of Icarus, this poem
Mandarinka [93]

Hello. You forgot to mention that this question is about the poem "Icarus's Flight". it is necessary that you always provide all the necessary information for your question to be answered as you deserve.

Answer:

The poem states that Icarus did the right thing because he used his skills to try to achieve his desire, instead of just wondering if "would it have worked?"

Explanation:

In short, we can say that the poem states that Icarus did the right thing, because he allowed himself to try. He had a desire, which he knew was risky, but he preferred to use his skills, rather than just theorizing about what might or might not happen. Icarus had a desire and he challenged himself and went after it, instead of just whining and questioning.

The poem shows, in the eighteenth line, that even in the face of possible failure, Icarus' experience would allow him to know himself better, knowing his weaknesses and strengths.
