The answer is Letter C. A Petit Mal Seizure. A Petit Mal Seizure or Absence Seizure is a type of seizure that makes the victim unresponsive for a few seconds and returns to consciousness afterwards. Not remembering the seizure episode he/she had. Therefore, Lucas experienced a Petit Mal Seizure or Absence Seizure.

Answer:

C) a petit mal seizure

Explanation:

Seizure is caused due to abnormal brain activity. The electrical signals repeat themselves or there is sudden change in neurotransmitter levels. Petit mal seizure or absence seizure occurs for a short duration of usually 10-30 seconds. During this period there is loss of consciousness but the symptoms are barely noticeable. Symptoms of petit mal seizure are fluttering eyelids, staring into space, leaning forward or backward, becoming motionless, suddenly break in speech and sudden movement of hands. After the seizure is over, the person returns to normal and does not usually remember what happened.
