The correct key is E. Partial complex seizure. [In partial simple seizer there is no LOC (loss of

consciousness). Infantile spasm though may be associated with occasional LOC but its nature is more

generalized rather than the focal nature described here. So the likely option is E. Partial complex

seizure].
