What is the process of cleaning a wound or body organ by flushing or washing out with water or a medicated solution?

  1. Lever

  2. Latitude

  3. Lava

  4. Irrigation

The correct answer is: Irrigation

Irrigation is the process of cleaning a wound or body organ by flushing or washing out with water or a medicated solution. This involves using a gentle but steady stream of liquid to remove any foreign objects, bacteria, or debris from the affected area. Options A, B, and C are unrelated to the process of wound or body organ cleaning and are therefore incorrect. Lever is a simple machine used to lift or move an object, latitude refers to imaginary lines on a map used to measure distance from the equator, and lava is hot molten rock that flows from a volcano. These options do not pertain to wound or organ cleaning, making them incorrect choices.
