Solution

The correct option is B Syrinx
Syrinx is vocal organ of birds. It is located at the base of a bird's trachea. The sound is produced by vibrations of some or all of the membrana tympaniforms (the walls of the syrinx) and the pessulus caused by air flowing through the syrinx. Hence, option B is correct.
