What are the signs of shock?

  1. High fever, chills, confusion

  2. Sweating, vomiting and grey skin

  3. Uncontrollable laughter, happiness

  4. Dizziness, thirst, hunger

The correct answer is: Sweating, vomiting and grey skin

Shock is a serious condition where the body's vital organs do not receive enough blood flow and oxygen. The signs of shock typically include sweating, vomiting and grey skin, indicating the body is trying to compensate for the lack of blood flow. Option A is incorrect as high fever, chills, and confusion are more likely symptoms of an infection or illness. Option C is incorrect as uncontrollable laughter and happiness are not physical symptoms of shock. Option D is also incorrect as dizziness, thirst, and hunger are more likely due to dehydration or low blood sugar levels. Therefore, B is the most accurate choice as it includes physical signs that are commonly associated with shock.
