antiemetic

Answer to Question 2

B
Explanation: A transient ischemic attack is a temporary interference with blood supply to the brain that may eventually lead to a full-blown stroke. Cerebral palsy is brain damage resulting from a defect, trauma, infection, or oxygen deprivation before, during, or shortly after birth. A cerebral contusion is a bruising of the brain from a blow or impact. A migraine is a specific type of headache characterized by severe head pain, sensitivity to light, dizziness, and nausea.
