Explanation:

Capillaries are thinnest blood vessels there are in human body or basically in any multicellular living creature. Capillaries are so thin, they are like a sheet made of cells. So there is nothing like capillaries which can introduce blood with the materials to be absorbed without letting both of them mix directly. Arteries and veins are too thick to carry out such exchange.

Why would a third-degree burn be less painful than a first- or second-degree burn involving the same body area?

Irina18 [472]

A third-degree burn would be less painful than a first- or second-degree burn involving the same body area because of the destruction of underlying pain receptors.
Nerve endings are destroyed in third-degree burns, which means that a person can no longer feel pain in that particular spot on the body. Third-degree burns are the most severe ones and cannot be treated easily - usually skin grafting or synthetic skin has to be used to replace the burnt skin.
