Answer:

The correct answer is option B. "Tensor veli palatini".

Explanation:

Masseter muscle plays an important role in chewing solid foods while the tensor veli palatini acts elevating the palate and preventing that food goes into the nasopharynx. A progressive degeneration of the motor axons that innervate the masseter muscle will likely produce a similar effect in the tensor veli palatini muscle. Not only both muscles have functions during chewing of food, but also both muscles are controlled by similar motor axons.

The area affected by the ship that were involved in an accident is = 333 million liters

An oil spill can affect bird nesting near a contaminated body of water through its food chain.

<h3>What is oil spillage?</h3>

Oil spillage is defined as the release of used or oil wastes into a water body through a tanker, offshore drilling rig, or underwater pipeline.

The area affected by the ship that were involved in an accident can be calculated by the addition of the various areas affected by the tanker, ship and super tanker.

That is, 32,000 + 1,200,000 + 332,000,000

= 333,232,000

Which is approximately 333 million liters.

A bird that is nesting near the contaminated body of water can be affected through its food chain.

This is because birds which depends on fish can eat fish for this contaminated water which must have accumulated some level of harmful organic substances on its body surfaces.
