The correct answer would be option C, Vegetative State.

His family and friends notice that his eyes have occasionally opened and he has made a few irregular sounds. Mikal is in a Vegetative State.

Explanation:

People go into the vegetative state due to some severe medical illness or due to traumatic brain injury. Due to the dysfunction of the cerebral hemispheres, the person goes into a state where consciousness, responsiveness and awareness are not present. In this state, the responsiveness and awareness are particularly absent.

The brain stem and the diencephalon are unable to preserve autonomic and motor reflexes and sleep-wake cycles.

So when Mikal was in a state in which his cognitive functions ceased but he was still breathing and sometimes showed some symptoms of consciousness like making sounds and opening of eyes, then he is in a Vegetative State.

<span> Que la primera guerra mundial fue consecuencia directa del nuevo imperialismo de las principales potencias del siglo XIX, la más interesada en la guerra era Reino Unido ya q Alemania estaba emergiendo desde su unificación como la primera potencia y amenazaba fuertemente su industria y marina, la otra gran interesada era Francia ya q después d la derrota en la guerra franco prusiana quería la revancha para recuperar Alsacia y Lorena, ahora a todo este ambiente d tención cualquier pretexto era bueno para comenzar la guerra, pero en si lo q pretendía el imperialismo d principios del siglo XX era tener el mayor número d colonias para tener el mayor número d productos para la industria.

El imerialismo antes d la segunda guerra mundial no fue el mismo q en el caso anterior, ya q el mundo apenas se recuperaba de la crisis d 1929, fue en esta época cuando Reino Unido alcanzo su máxima extensión colonial sin embargo aquí el detonante fue la ideología d Hitler d recuperar territorios perdidos y d expandir Alemania lo q causó la Segunda Guerra Mundial cuando invadio Polonia, cabe destacar q después d la segunda guerra mundial la mayoría d los países africanos y d las colonias británicas se independizaron </span>
