B
constipation
C

D
obstipation
Explanation: 

Detailed explanation-1: -Slow transit constipation is characterised by the reduced motility of the large intestine, caused by abnormalities of the enteric nerves. The unusually slow passage of waste through the large intestine leads to chronic problems, such as constipation and uncontrollable soiling.

Detailed explanation-2: -Paralytic ileus occurs in the intestines, the long, tube-like passageway where food is broken down and absorbed before the waste is pushed out as poop. The intestines process your food along this journey through a series of wave-like movements called peristalsis. Paralytic ileus is the paralysis of these movements.

Detailed explanation-3: -A fecal impaction is a large lump of dry, hard stool that stays stuck in the rectum. It is most often seen in people who are constipated for a long time.
