Solution

The correct option is B No response when prickled with needles
Medulla oblongata is an essential role in passing messages between the spinal cord and brain. It's also essential for regulation of cardiovascular and respiratory systems. If it gets damaged then respiratory failure, paralysis or loss of sensation can take place.
So, option C is the correct option.
