Solution

The correct option is A They may bleed to death
  • If a person has an open wound and if his blood did not clot naturally, he would bleed to death. When an injury occurs, the blood normally begins clotting process to prevent the excess loss of blood from the body.
  • If a person is suffering from any bleeding disorder, his blood will not clot at all or fast enough. This will result in the death of a person.

Thus, the correct answer is 'They may bleed to death.'
