Answer:

B

Step-by-step explanation:

Suburns are considered true burns (it's in the name I mean...)

Sunburns do not just cause a reddening of the skin, if you've ever had it you know how much worse it is than just the red color and how it hurts too. Plus, sunburns can drastically increase your risk of skin cancer and stuff you know?

Sunburns can be 1st or 2nd degree, but most of the time it is a 1st degree burn. Either way, don't get a sunburn, it hurts so bad just wear sunscreen.

B. Most sunburn is considered a 1st degree burn.

Step-by-step explanation:

The majority of sunny burns are classified as 1st degree burns. A first degree burn only effects the top layer of skin[the epidermis].
