What is a whitehead also known as?

An open comedo
Rosacea
A closed comedo
Telangiectasia

The correct answer is: A closed comedo

Unfortunately, this answer is incorrect. While a closed comedo is a type of whitehead, it is not the only form. Whiteheads can also be in the form of an open comedo, known as blackheads, which are clogged but are exposed to the air and therefore appear darker. Rosacea is a different type of skin condition characterized by redness, Telangiectasia refers to small, dilated blood vessels found near the surface of the skin, and none of these terms are interchangeable with whiteheads. Therefore, the correct answer is A An open comedo.
