The answer is A. Calling for emergency assistance is not necessary for a minor cut but it is important to remember to apply pressure to stop the bleeding, and once the bleeding has stopped, you have to clean the wound to make sure there are no foreign objects are in there, and lastly, though not necessary, you apply antibiotic ointment to give your boy the upper edge in the healing process.

Your answer is A, calling for emergency assistance, a small cut does not need an ambulance to arrive and treat the wound. Unless there is excessive bleeding such as possibly hitting an artery or the cut is 1inch deep then you should call for assistance
