What describes a macule?

  1. Raised lesion

  2. Flat colored spot on the skin

  3. Inflamed pimple

  4. Crack in the skin

The correct answer is: Flat colored spot on the skin

A raised lesion is a different type of skin abnormality that has a different appearance than a macule, as it is elevated from the skin's surface. An inflamed pimple is also a different type of skin lesion that is caused by infection and appears as a raised and inflamed bump. A crack in the skin is a fissure, which can be caused by dryness or trauma to the area, but is not the same as a macule. Therefore, option B - a flat colored spot on the skin - is the best description of a macule.
