Answer:


\boxed {\boxed {\sf A. \ ABCDE}}

Step-by-step explanation:

First, let's identify each acronym.

1. ABCDE

  • This is the correct answer. This helps identify skin cancer. It stands for Asymmetry, Border, Color, Diameter and Evolution.

Even though we found the answer, let's check the others to ensure our answer is right.

B. HOSA

  • This is the Health Occupations Students of America, so clearly this isn't a method for assessing the skin.

C. HIPAA

  • This is the Health Insurance Portability and Accountability Act. It protects a patient's medical information.

D. FAST

  • This helps with identifying a stroke. It stands for Face, Arm, Speech, and Time.

The best answer choice is A. ABCDE
