  • Options
  • A. Radiation pulses of the electricity
  • B. The heat generated by the flow of electrical current through the body
  • C. The high energy of electrons
  • D. All of the above

  • Correct Answer
  • The heat generated by the flow of electrical current through the body 

    Explanation

    Electrical burns occur principally because of the heat generated by the flow of electrical current through the body.

     

    Burns caused by electricity are divided into three types:

    electrical burns,

    arc burns, and

    thermal contact burns.

     

    Electrical burns can result when a person touches electrical wiring or equipment that is used or maintained improperly.
