Answer and explanation

Correct answer D

Each listed injury is grievous hurt under section 116: emasculation, permanent disfiguration of the head, dislocation of a tooth and fracture of a bone. The fracture-or-dislocation category expressly covers both bones and teeth. A displaced tooth therefore cannot be excluded merely because no bone fracture is described.
