It happens when a person is struck by a piece of a projectile, grenade, or flying piece of debris that is the result of an explosion.
Many grenades such as the fragmentation grenade were made to send many pieces of shrapnel fly in all directions causing maximum damage.
Shrapnel wounds (generally during war time) comes in various forms: * Shrapnel is extremely sharp and it's caused by a bomb or grenade (booby traps). The thrust can sever a head or limbs. * Shrapnel can embed itself into a human body destroying organs, or, if the poor soldier is lucky enough it can be removed. * Shrapnel causes paralysis in the less fortunate (severs the spinal column.) * Shrapnel can also enter the gut area and cause severe damage laying the person's stomach wide open. * Shrapnel can enter the body at any angle and can be in extremely small pieces which is difficult for the surgeon to remove.

The primary cause of shell shock in World War I was D) the stress of war. Soldiers faced extreme psychological pressure due to the horrors of trench warfare, constant bombardment, and the loss of comrades, leading to mental health issues.

The blast effect that causes trauma by shrapnel is primarily known as "fragmentation." When an explosive device detonates, it generates a shock wave and produces debris or shrapnel from the casing or surrounding materials. This high-velocity debris can cause severe injuries, penetrating wounds, and lacerations to individuals in the vicinity. The extent of trauma often depends on the size, velocity, and material of the shrapnel as well as the proximity of the victims to the explosion.
