Cuts and scrapes may become infected when bacteria enter the wound, resulting in a skin infection. This causes changes in the texture of the skin and turns the surrounding skin red or white. Fungal infections, such as ringworm and tinea versicolor, can also trigger discolored skin patches on various parts of the body.
A plough (UK) or plow (US; both /ËplaÊ/) is a tool (or machine) used in farming for initial cultivation of soil in preparation for sowing seed or planting to loosen or turn the soil.
Single Ply, Two-Ply and Three-Ply. Ply is how many yarns are twisted together to make a single thread. Fabrics can either be two-ply or single ply. Two-ply means that two yarns are twisted together to make a single thread that is then woven into the fabric. (Note that this is not at all like two-ply toilet paper!).
