5 what might result from injury to the reticular formation? multiple choice hyperactivity increased sensory sensitivity lack of muscle coordination unconsciousness or coma
The reticular formation is involved in regulating wakefulness and arousal. Injury to it can disrupt these functions, leading to unconsciousness or coma. Hyperactivity is not typical (it's more about arousal regulation, not excess activity), increased sensory sensitivity isn't a primary result, and lack of muscle coordination is related to structures like the cerebellum, not the reticular formation.
