Solution

The correct option is C Preoral cavity
Hypopharynx is chitinous, grooved and a rod-like structure found hanging into the preoral cavity. It is also known as ligula or tongue. Hypopharynx divides the proximal part of the preoral cavity into a larger anterior cibarium and a posterior salivarium. The salivary duct opens into salivarium at the base of the hypopharynx.
So the correct answer is 'Preoral cavity'.
