Vedclass · Answer

(C) Tetany is a condition characterized by intermittent muscle spasms,which is often caused by low levels of calcium $(Ca^{2+})$ in the body fluids. In severe cases of tetany,the spasms can affect the respiratory muscles,such as the diaphragm and intercostal muscles. When these muscles undergo prolonged and severe spasms,the individual is unable to breathe properly,leading to a lack of oxygen supply to the body. This condition,known as asphyxia,eventually results in death.
