The correct option is C Anaphylactic shock
Anaphylactic shock, also called as anaphylaxis is a severe allergic reaction that occurs rapidly and causes a life-threatening response involving the whole body. This reaction can lead to difficulty in breathing and shock ultimately leading to death. For an anaphylactic reaction to occur, one must have been exposed in the past to that particular antigen.
