Solution

The correct option is B Remove dirt with water
Appropriate first aid is given to a minor wound to speed up the healing process. It also reduces the risk of infection. When Aman slipped on the ground, it can be a major or a minor wound. The first step in giving first aid is to clean the wound with water. This is done to prevent infection and contamination of the wound.
