The repair/proliferation phase lasts for about ____
A
1-3 weeks
B
6-8 weeks
C
18-24 weeks
D
None of the above
Explanation: 

Detailed explanation-1: -The wound healing process is usually characterized as four sequential but overlapping phases: haemostasis (0–several hours after injury), inflammation (1–3 days), proliferation (4–21 days) and remodelling (21 days–1 year) [1].

Detailed explanation-2: -Remodeling Scar tissue formation characterizes the final Remodeling Phase (also known as Maturation). It may occur over months or years, depending on the initial severity of the wound, its location, and treatment methods. During this phase, the new tissue gradually becomes stronger and more flexible.

Detailed explanation-3: -Phases of the Wound Healing Process A proliferative phase to reconstitute the wound site. A remodelling phase where tissue strength and function are restored.

Detailed explanation-4: -Wound healing is classically divided into 4 stages: (A) hemostasis, (B) inflammation, (C) proliferation, and (D) remodeling. Each stage is characterized by key molecular and cellular events and is coordinated by a host of secreted factors that are recognized and released by the cells of the wounding response.
