Question

question 15 (2.5 points) tingling, burning, and crawling of the skin would be called ______.
options: sciatica, neuralgia, paresthesia

question 14 (2.5 points)
______ is a chronic inflammatory disease of the central nervous system in which immune ce
attack the myelin sheath of the nerve cell axons.

option: cerebral palsy

Question 13

• Sciatica is pain along the sciatic nerve (lower back/leg), not skin sensations.
• Neuralgia is nerve pain (sharp, stabbing), not tingling/crawling.
• Paresthesia refers to abnormal skin sensations like tingling, burning, or crawling (e.g., "pins and needles").

• Cerebral palsy results from brain injury/damage (not immune attack on myelin). The described disease (immune attack on CNS myelin) is Multiple Sclerosis (MS), so "Cerebral palsy" is incorrect. (If MS were an option, that would be correct; the given option is wrong.)

Answer:

C. paresthesia

Question 14 (Note: The question seems cut off, but based on the description, the disease is likely Multiple Sclerosis (MS), as it involves immune cells attacking myelin in the CNS. Cerebral palsy is a motor disorder from brain damage, not immune-mediated myelin attack. Assuming the options include MS (even if not fully shown here, correcting the given option):
