Answer:

The correct answer is - atrophy

Explanation:

In the body, if there is a lack of body or organ movement or there is no physical movement as Mr. A doing in the given case after his injury in the leg, he refused to get off the bed and having one meal per day of biscuits and grits, he will most likely occur with his if he continues to sit or lay down one place.
