Solution

The correct option is C Syrinx
The birds produce more complex voices than any other animal. The sound box or syrinx of the birds is situated at the point where the windpipe divides into two. The syrinx enables some of the brid species to mimic human sounds as well.
So, the correct answer is 'Syrinx'.
