Solution

The correct option is A Optic
The optic nerve, also known as cranial nerve is a paired cranial nerve that transmits visual information from the retina to the brain. It also conducts the visual impulses that are responsible for two important neurological reflexes: the light reflex and the accommodation reflex. Also, optic nerve is the smallest cranial nerve in humans.
So, option A is the correct option.
