Inflammatory condition of the skin is known as:

  1. Basal Cell Carcinoma

  2. Dermatitis

  3. Malignant Melanoma

  4. Secondary Lesion

The correct answer is: Dermatitis

Dermatitis is the correct answer because it refers to an inflammatory condition of the skin. Basal Cell Carcinoma and Malignant Melanoma are types of skin cancer, not inflammatory conditions. Secondary Lesion is a term used to describe changes in the skin surface as a result of a primary lesion or disease process, not specifically an inflammatory condition.
