Answer:

B. contusion

Step-by-step explanation:

A contusion is caused when blood vessels or capillary are injured as the result of a blow to the skin, this leads to the blood leakage to the surrounding areas forming an ecchymosis (or bruise), a purplish coloration on the affected area.

I hope you find this information useful and interesting! Good luck!
