Quizplus · Accepted Answer

Quadriplegia is the term used to describe the paralysis of all four limbs (arms and legs) along with the trunk of the body, which indicates almost equal involvement of all four limbs. Paraplegia refers to the paralysis or loss of function of the lower half of the body, including both legs. Diplegia refers to the involvement of the same body parts on both sides of the body (either legs or arms). Hemiplegia refers to the paralysis of one side of the body, which can affect both the arm and leg on that side.
