Answer:

Trauma received by Jennifer on her arm can be classified as physical and penetrating trauma.

Explanation:

Physical trauma is related to injuries produced in any area of the body, with varying degrees of severity.

Jennifer's injury is a type of physical trauma, penetrating trauma, which produces an open wound - penetrating skin and other tissues - at the site of injury.

Another type of physical trauma is blunt force trauma, that can produce contusions or even bone fractures. A variety of trauma is also a compression or crush injury.

About the other options:

  • Blunt and penetrating trauma.  Injury does not correspond to compound trauma, but to simple trauma.
  • Emotional and blunt trauma.  It is a physical trauma. Some injuries may result in temporary or permanent disability, where emotional trauma may be associated.
  • Physical and blunt trauma.  Injury produced an open wound, corresponding to penetrating trauma.
