Correct Option: C

Biological death occurs when brain cells start to die due to lack of oxygen. Biological death follows clinical death (when a person stops breathing). Without oxygen brain damage can occur within minutes. 4-6 minutes of oxygen deprivation can cause minor brain damage. 6-10 minutes of oxygen deprivation will cause brain damage. After 10 minutes of no oxygen irreversible brain damage occurs.
