Question

lara does a flip into the pool and injures herself. which is a possible long - term consequence of the injury? a red mark from the splash a bruise at the site of injury an immediate need for treatment a permanent disability or paralysis

Explanation:

• “a red mark from the splash” is a very short - term and minor manifestation, not a long - term consequence.
• “a bruise at the site of injury” is also a relatively short - term physical sign (usually heals in days to weeks).
• “an immediate need for treatment” is about the urgency of dealing with the injury at the moment, not a long - term result.
• “a permanent disability or paralysis” can occur if the injury (such as a severe spinal cord or nerve injury during the flip) is serious enough, and it is a long - term and potentially life - changing consequence.

Answer:

a permanent disability or paralysis
