Answer:

A nurse gives a medication and client has an adverse reaction.

Step-by-step explanation:

Hi! The answer to your question would be an example such as when a nurse gives a medication and client has an adverse reaction.

This is because unintentional tort refer to when the person did not intend harm, but harm occurred anyway. In this particular case, the nurse was not looking to harm the patient by givign him a certain medication, but accidents occur and the patient turned out being harmed. Since this wasn't done on purpose, this would be an unintentional tort.

***I had to look up the options somewhere else so don't forget to include the options next time.
