Explanation / Answer

Ans : Seepage of liquid stool

The liquid fecal stool seeps in the case of fecal impaction occuring inside the patient , because the peristalsis does not stop even in the case of impaction. It tries to push the contents towards the excretory pore , though it is unable to pass through.
