Answer:

The correct answer choice from the list, to answer the question: Which of the following is not an example of generalized seizure?, would be, A: simple partial.

Explanation:

Seizures, which are a symptom of a major brain disorder called epilepsy, are defined as the erratic, and suddenly disorganized, firing of neurons inside the hemispheres of the brain. Some of these electrical impulses may be limited to a specific part of the brain, in only one of the two hemispheres, which is why this type of seizure would be known as focal, or partial. However, in generalized seizures, the disorganized electrical impulses sent by neurons, take both of the hemispheres and can cause a complete collpase of the brain functions, as the brain is incapable of communicating. There is a list of various seizure types within the category of generalized seizures. These are: absence (known as petit mal), tonic-clonic, or convulsive seizures, atonic seizures, clonic seizures, clonic, tonic and myoclonic seizures. Their category depends on how the body reacts to the disorganized firing of the neurons, the region of the brain that is affected and the connected organs and tissue that responds to the disorganized stimulus sent by the neurons.
