How would you define seizures?

  1. Brain damage

  2. A type of headache

  3. An involuntary muscle contraction/relaxation

  4. Temporary hearing loss

The correct answer is: An involuntary muscle contraction/relaxation

Seizures are defined as an abnormal and sudden electrical activity in the brain that can cause involuntary muscle contractions or relaxation. Option A, brain damage, is incorrect because not all seizures result in brain damage and not all brain damage causes seizures. Headaches (option B) and hearing loss (option D) are unrelated to seizures and therefore incorrect.
