1. holding the victim by the neck prevents struggling
2. the head falls after the accident
3. the neck is easy to reach, without having to remove clothing
4. it prevents the person from becoming paraplegicCorrect answer!

The other options broaden, narrow, or depart from those conditions and should not be selected. Under the current rule, the difficulty is 3 on a scale from 1 to 5.
