<h2>(D) is the correct option </h2>
Explanation:
- Both the stapedius and tensor tympani are striated muscles
- The stapedius is about 6 mm in length, arises from the pyramidal process and the tendon attaches to the posterior neck of the stapes
- The stapedius is a muscle with a high oxidative capacity
- The tensor tympani is about 25 mm in length, the muscle is not as strong as the stapedius, and the tendon also contains more elastic tissue and fat
- The tensor tympani courses through a bony canal in the wall of the anterior middle ear, and attaches to the neck of the manubrium
- The tensor tympani and stapedius muscles are protective reflexes
- They reduce the amount of sound that gets into the inner ear
- They are somewhat similar to the blink reflex thus they can be triggered by loud noise, and when they go off, both ears can be involved
- If stapedius and tensor tympani muscles is not present then loud sounds would cause the ossicles to move too much, potentially causing damage to the inner ear

Answer:
Animals and plants need to get rid of carbon dioxide gas through a process called respiration. Carbon moves from fossil fuels to the atmosphere when fuels are burned.
The oceans, and other bodies of water, absorb some carbon from the atmosphere. The carbon is dissolved into the water.
