Explanation: 

Detailed explanation-1: -Early stages of wound healing include hemostasis and activation of keratinocytes and inflammatory cells. The intermediate stage involves proliferation and migration of keratinocytes, proliferation of fibroblasts, matrix deposition, and angiogenesis.

Detailed explanation-2: -Wound healing is a complex biological process that consists of hemostasis, inflammation, proliferation, and remodeling. Large numbers of cell types-including neutrophils, macrophages, lymphocytes, keratinocytes, fibroblasts, and endothelial cells-are involved in this process.

Detailed explanation-3: -Red blood cells help create collagen, which are tough, white fibers that form the foundation for new tissue. The wound starts to fill in with new tissue, called granulation tissue. New skin begins to form over this tissue. As the wound heals, the edges pull inward and the wound gets smaller.
