what does the acronym r.i.c.e. stand for?

a. readiness, intensity, competition, eagerness.

b. rest, ice, contain, exercise.

c. rest, ice, compression, elevation.

d. resist, ice, compression, exercise.

Explanation:

The acronym R.I.C.E. in the context of injury management (a common medical/health - related concept) stands for Rest, Ice, Compression, and Elevation. Option A's terms are not related to injury care. Option B's "Contain" is incorrect and "Exercise" at this stage is not part of R.I.C.E. Option D's "Resist" is incorrect and the concept of R.I.C.E. does not include "Resist" and the correct last term is "Elevation" not "Exercise".

Answer:

C. Rest, Ice, Compression, Elevation.
