Solution

The correct option is C Dorsally incomplete
The Trachea (Windpipe) in mammals like humans and rabbits is a tube that extends from the lower edge of the larynx to the upper part of the chest above the heart. It has a framework of cartilages to keep it open. These cartilages, shaped somewhat like a tiny horseshoe or the letter C, are found along the entire length of the trachea. All the open sections of these cartilages are at the back (dorsally incomplete) so that the esophagus can bulge into this section during swallowing. The purpose of the trachea is to conduct air between the larynx and the lungs.
Hence the correct option is C.
