Solution

The correct option is C fracture

A crack or break in the bone is termed as a fracture. It may range from a thin crack to a complete break of a bone. Bone can fracture crosswise, lengthwise even maybe at several places. Most fractures are happening when a bone is impacted by more pressure which it can support.

So the correct answer is a fracture. Thus correct option is C. Other option are not relevant.
