    The dynamic equilibrium of the body is disrupted as a result of a spinal cord injury. So the answer is 'D'.

    Explanation:

    The whole body works on the command of the brain. The brain is responsible for sending messages to the body via the spinal cord. If there is any damage to the spinal cord the message will not reach the body.

    Even, if the message goes to the spinal nerves, the message cannot climb back up. Also, the usual reflex movements are not under the control of the brain. A person with a spinal cord injury cannot sweat or even have goosebumps and as a result the temperature rises. The equilibrium of transmission and receiving back of the messages is disturbed.
