complete recovery is guaranteed with proper rehabilitation.

Explanation:

• For the first option: A severe spine injury typically causes more than minor coordination issues; it's usually more serious, so this is incorrect.
• For the second option: Severe spinal injuries can damage the spinal cord, leading to partial or complete paralysis, loss of sensation, and impaired reflexes as the spinal cord is crucial for transmitting signals between the brain and the body.
• For the third option: Severe spine injuries, especially those affecting the spinal cord, do not guarantee complete recovery even with proper rehabilitation, as spinal cord damage is often permanent or has limited recovery potential.

Answer:

B. It can lead to partial or complete paralysis, loss of sensation, and impaired reflexes.
