Detailed explanation-1: -Electrical discharges occur throughout the brain, causing a generalized tonic-clonic seizure.

Detailed explanation-2: -In epilepsy the brain’s electrical rhythms have a tendency to become imbalanced, resulting in recurrent seizures. In patients with seizures, the normal electrical pattern is disrupted by sudden and synchronized bursts of electrical energy that may briefly affect their consciousness, movements or sensations.

Detailed explanation-3: -Focal seizures result from electrical activity in one area of the brain. This type of seizure can occur with or without loss of consciousness: Focal seizures with impaired awareness.
