Answer

Julio has a head injury.
B
Julio fractured a bone.
C
Julio has a sprain.
D
Julio stretched a ligament.

Explanation

Nausea followed by loss of consciousness after a fall can indicate a head injury, such as a concussion. A fracture, sprain, or stretched ligament would more typically cause pain, swelling, or difficulty moving a limb, rather than loss of consciousness. Julio should get urgent medical attention.
