What role does pain play in the human body?
draws attention to certain area that may have damage
How does the body interpret and process pain?
all parts of the brain help in the process of pain

there could be more damage to the body, and the body would not be alerted to the dangerous
situation
Collagen
an insoluble fibrous protein of vertebrates that is the chief constituent of the fibrils of connective
tissue (as in skin and tendons) and of the organic substance of bones
Connective tissue
animal tissue that functions mainly to bind and support other tissues, having a sparse population
of cells scattered through an extracellular matrix
Dermis
the sensitive vascular inner mesodermic layer of skin
Elastin
a protein that is similar to collagen and is the chief constituent of elastic fibers
Endorphin
a hormone produced in the brain and anterior pituitary that inhibits pain perception
Epidermis

Basic bodily sensation that is induced by a noxious stimulus, is received by naked nerve endings,
is characterized by physical discomfort, and typically leads to evasive action

any of the small sacculated glands lodged in the substance
Second Degree Burn
a burn marked by pain, blistering, and superficial destruction of ermis with edema and hyperemia
of the tissues beneath the burn
Third degree burn
severe burn characterized by destruction of the skin through the depth of the dermis and possibly
into underlying tissues, loss of fluid, and sometimes shock
