Solution

The correct option is B Smell.
Jacobson's organ is an axillary olfactory sense organ that is found in many animals. In mammals, the sensory neurons of Jacobson's organ detect specific chemical compounds contained within scents that are often but not always, large non-volatile molecules. It is well developed in snakes (and lizards).
