All sports injuries need to be treated as if they are life-threatening.
C
Blows to the head are generally fatal unless treated immediately.
D
A blow to the head generally results in a fracture.

Explanation

A blow to the head can cause a concussion, which is a serious injury that should be assessed by a doctor. The other choices make inaccurate claims: not every sports injury is life-threatening, head blows are not generally fatal, and they do not generally cause a fracture.
