In children with meningitis , there is the potential for many complications occurring from damage to the nervous system. Which of the following is/are the most common, nonlethal complication(s)?
A. Cranial nerve deficits
B. Epilepsy
C. bleeding intracranially
D. Cerebral palsy
In case of the children suffering from meningitis generally the infection extends to the area of cranial nerves, causing the increased pressure in the area, which leads to the sensory deficit more specifically the Cranial nerve deficits and it is the most common nonlethal complication in case of meningitis.

Questions 1 pts Humans and many other diurnal animals have three types of cones - one stimulated maximally by blue light, a second maximally stimulated by green light, and a third stimulated maximally by red light. How can human beings see colors such as orange, yellow and purple? When red cones are stimulated, they inhibit blue and green cones. When blue cones are stimulated, they inhibit only green cones. Green cones when stimulated, do not inhibit other cones, but do...
