Solution

The correct option is C Turbinals
Nasal concha is also called turbinal. They are any of several thin, scroll-shaped bony elements forming the upper chambers of the nasal cavities. Turbinals increase the surface area of the nasal cavities, thus facilitating the rapid warming and humidification of air as it passes through the lungs. Thus the correct answer is option B.
