Abrasion: when the skin rubs or scrapes on a rough surface, can possibly cause bleeding and, if severe enough, can cause an avulsion

Laceration: deep cut or tear in the skin, it is often caused by shrapnel of any kind, such as of a piece of glass or a fragmenting object such as a hollow-point bullet or a shotgun shell

Puncture: a hole caused by a sharp pointy object such as a nail, needle, or a knife.

Avulsion: complete tearing away of the skin or tissue, often called degloving. These injuries are usually the most life-threatening.

Explain why it is important to be skeptical of statistical results reported in the media.
Bezzdna [24]

You should probably reword it tho

Many statistics are taken from a small group of people used to represent the general population. Say a news channel reported that 81% of teenagers in America were planning on going to a four-year college. This statistic is most likely taken from a randomly selected group of teenagers, and calculated with a margin of error. Because after all, it's nearly impossible to survey every single teenager in America. This can lead to some statistics that are not really representative of the actual percentage of people. This only gets more likely the larger the general population being "surveyed" is. Another reason is that the media is not always truthful with statistics. Things can be altered and not many people will notice.
