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.
